I honestly don't understand why eBay needs to make that kind of change
Simple really, a lot of sellers complained about Non-Payment on Best Offer transactions which effectively took their items off the market for a week or more.
Personally I think Best Offer should be limited to items of some reasonable minimum value, using Best Offer on cheap items makes no sense whatsoever (to me).
