I do not bid on an item unless I want it. The last two times I have bidded on items. The Seller did not responded or say the items was shipped. No form of communication what so ever. I can not stand it when I do not hear from people. My point is, do you let the winner know the item has been shipped?
I always let folks know it has been shipped. I generally ship the morning after the auction closes. I sell on ebay and etsy and have great feed back here on listia and at those other sites. You can check my feedback here--http://www.ebay.com/usr/fraujamison
