Bloody hell eBay, don't do this!
It's not a Competing Offer as I haven't made an offer myself.
As an occasional wine-fuelled bidder, this kind of notification is very alarming.

A ticket for the Sunday of the #Edgbaston Ashes test in 2005 was £36 (Eric Hollies stand).
Adjusted for inflation that's now around £64.
A ticket in the same stand for the #ENGvsIND series is £115.
The fact that it's a sell out does not justify that.
#TestCricket is being priced out reach.

Using the term "DEI" is a sure sign of someone who understands nothing and spends too much time reading shite online.
That term has never been used here.
You can think for yourself, you don't have to copy paste the latest bollocks from the US far right.
