It's still coming up with that option for me. Maybe you've been marked.

I don't like the way they say they can recover any costs incurred in monitoring your account!! How open ended is that?!
Very strange, have you actually tried to contact someone? it appears to give you the option put click on it and I think you will find it doesn't.
I have tried several times to contact a seller about a question and there is no way to do so.

I don't understand why people set reserves. If you want a minimum amount, just set the starting price as your minimum and look at any bids as a bonus.
Indeed, I wouldn't even bid on something that shows 'reserve not met', as above just start it at the 'reserve'.

It doesn't work any more mate, it sends you back to the generic 5 questions and says re read the advert for the information you need.

Total lock down .
Ah - that would explain my inability to contact the seller of wheelbarrow wheels to work out which one I needed for my particular usage. They had a telephone number so I called them on that.

An increase in sellers fees (that were already high enough to put me off really selling anything) and the lack of email is going to make it quite difficult to use.

We seem to be regressing back to the 1980s for selling stuff. Maybe that's not such a bad thing in some ways.
