[RANT] Punishing for not bidding high
I'm tired of these sellers threatening to raise to set prices if people don't bid above a certain number. I'm ok if you start at a set price. But if you want to use the "We have $1 start prices" claim, then don't threaten your viewers when they "don't bid high enough". You are gambling just as much as we are. We gamble on your wheel / auctions and you gamble that you will make more money than you invested in the set. And the dude I'm talking about has the audacity to put "PLEASE RESPECT EVERYONE'S DECISIONS TO BID ON THEIR OWN FREE WILL. FAILURE TO COMPLY WILL RESULT IN BEING BANNED FROM STREAM". So we can't tell people that they could just buy the item for less money than they've spent, but you can tell them they're not spending enough and threaten to end the show. Maybe people don't want to bid $20+ on your endless shitty chinese blind boxes.
