Not in the literal sense of the word no, but I was the originator and the
sole contributor for a considerable time. Let's just say I adopted it.

Of course I don't, show me a seller who does! You'll be telling us next
that you relish being outbid by other buyers :)

I really don't think anybody gives a toss Mike. I dare say they would speak
for themselves if they did. I think you're flattering yourself if you
believe you have the authority to represent the views of "a lot of people".
Perhaps best to stick to your own opinion.

Like I said earlier, it is the principle (thanks Larry) that I'm objecting
to.
1 auction,1 seller. If there are 3 folks selling the same item then there
should be 3
auctions. Why don't you ask if you can advertise you Lego for sale in your
local toyshop window? I'm sure the shopkeeper will explain in words of one
syllable :)
