Should Buyer Requests have a deadline?

[lunabea]

I see the Buyer Requests feature as a bidding-type feature like Elance and other freelance websites. It’s generally more competitive, plus you don’t know who you are bidding against and what price they are offering.



I think the buyer requests page should show a deadline - there are lots of requests still available for bidding, but us sellers are unsure if the buyer is still looking for work.



I think if a deadline is set and shown on each request it will allow sellers a better understanding of work turnaround time and when requests are no longer available - currently you can only view ended requests for ones you have sent offers for.
