    I was given an infraction with the following note
    If someone sends me a bid for the product by private message how shall I make people aware of the current high bid?

    Thanks.

    Use the auction system.

    Shawn, the thread he's referring to was started before the auction system came into place.

    We generally have allowed people to post when they've received private bids as long as it doesn't get excessive (if they seem to "magically" get private bids left and right, especially when they've stopped getting other interest, that reeks of fraud). So if it was only one, that post should have been fine. Will leave it to Shawn to make a final call though.
