I saw this listing for an eBay item...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7572607719
(Item number: 7572607719)
a CNC mill.

I don't know if it is good or not; probably more machine than I am
interested in, but...

They say in the listing, "We reserve the right to end this sale , if the
machine is sold locally."

Does eBay allow something like that? Sounds like a violation of rules to
me. Even if I was interested, this would stop me from bidding.

Should I report them to eBay?


This is allowed but the auction must be cancelled at least 12 hours prior to
the scheduled end of the auction. Agreed, it not a very good practice. I
usually try to sell locally first and then put it on eBay.
