eBay has decided to discontinue Dutch Auction after finding out that not many people use it because Sellers don't find it economically viable while Buyers find it confusing. I have to agree with the confusion part!
Although I have been selling online for a few years now, I have to say that I never used Dutch Auction before and never bothered to read and understand how it works. I guess basically when I could list and sell my items with a profit quickly and without problems, I see no reason why I should take the trouble to learn about Dutch Auctions, which may even raise my overall listing cost.
Well, frankly, with eBay removing Dutch Auction, I wouldn't even miss it and judging from the number of people who actually use it, most sellers and buyers wouldn't either! What about you?
