    Default Does anyone go through Contractions after bidding?

    http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...&category=1182

    Maybe its just the fact that I'm going on 30 hours without sleep... but I got a chuckle outta this:

    **********WE WILL LEAVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK*********

    *************FOR ANYONE WHO DOES NOT*************

    *********GO THROUGH WITH THE CONTRACTION*********

    ************AFTER WINNING THE AUCTION************

    I thought perhaps you were required to leave feedback like "it's a pleasure to buy from you as you're a swell guy."

    True, but this is using the word as a verb. He stated it as a noun. He should have used "contract."
