I say lock up the listings by putting them on hold. Let them show, but don't allow anyone to buy. That way no one is fooled, no one loses money, and when the person comes back they have to ask to get ebid to unlock the listings. They can then be told that many wanted to buy but the shop looked abandoned so ebid went and locked the door.
Many ebidders are coming back. Makes it easy for them to get serious again if we don't delete all their listings.
