I can see why ebay does not let sellers change the item description after the
first bid. However, the weakness in the system is that any picture can be changed
at any point. I've done in the past when the existing picture was far too big and
was taking forever to load. So I just changed it to a lower colour resolution
However, I could have, if I wanted, submitted a totally different picture.

I have for auction on ebay:

9 Volt Train Speed Controller - Many people inquire about getting one, but
nobody wants to pay $46 for it, so here it is, real cheap.

Also, I have a few circles of track for auction: (16 curve, 2 straights) - I
screwed up on the LEGO price for track on the first lot and took out that
wording on the new lot, so please don't jump my case.  I still don't list
new sets as RARE.  :-)


Mike,

So long as nobody has bid on an item yet, you can revise the listing to change
the text of the auction.

Just go to the item itself, and just below the price, location and timing
information there will be a link to a page that lets you revise auctions.
Unlike adding to an item's description, this lets you change existing text, no
t merely add new text, hence the limitation on using it only when no one has
bid on the item yet.

I hope this helps.

Will
