Ebay advert in my inbox:

Score deals on summer essentials with zero bids

What's hot on eBay

[...]
Uh, isn't something with zero bids not exactly "hot"?  Usually something "hot" means popular enough for tons of people to be trying to buy...or maybe I just haven't had enough coffee yet...

The Ad was refering to Buy it Now items. Unfortunatly Ebay has changed over the years, they are now all about the Buy it Now items and the major sellers (I.E. 5000+ items a day) they could care less about the little sellers and their auctions anymore.
