<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LostDutchman, post: 1374347, member: 16994&quot;]<font face="verdana">I had a good one this morning. </font></p><p><font face="verdana"><br /></font></p><p><font face="verdana">I have a no reserve auction running for a piece of currency. Someone placed a bid and then retracted it... probably fishing for the other guys high bid... I messaged him and told him that wasn&#039;t cool and if he did it again I was going to block him from bidding. The bid retracted was for one cent over the high bid. </font></p><p><br /></p><p>The underbidder then messaged me with :</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;<span style="color: #000"><font face="arial">I&nbsp; WAS BID UP BY SOMEONE WHO HAS WITHDRAWN THEIR BID IF NOT FOR THIS&nbsp; PERSON MY BID WOULD BE $13.25 HOW DO YOU WANT TO HANDLE THIS ???&quot;</font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana">He was totally incorrect as there was another bidder a quarter under his current high bid of $22.... This guy has a feedback of less then 30... seems like the same ole noob story.&nbsp; </font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana">How do <b>I</b> want to handle this?</font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana">I then explained how his issue was with EBay&#039;s policies of allowing bidders to retract bids... and with the bidder who had retracted his bid. And if he wasn&#039;t willing to pay more then $13.25 then why did he obviously bid higher???</font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana">Le sigh. </font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><font face="verdana"><br /></font></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #000"><font face="arial"></font></span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
