[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2401744, member: 36230"]$15 was NOT your last bid; $25 was, and what about the $15.67 (or whatever) guy? Perhaps at the set increment above his, but apparently it doesn't work that way. As for the supposed "ghost bid", your feedback isn't 2% of the other guy's, your activity with this seller (while still low) is actually higher than his (not to mention your high bid just happens to match the now BIN price), and you both have one bid retraction, so had he kept the coin, would it have been logical, or even acceptable, for him to assume you were a shill? You are (or were) certainly under no obligation to accept the second chance offer, but claiming $15 was your last bid and that this amount is all you're willing to pay simply isn't true unless you had no intention of following through on your actual high bid. The same ebay rules that allow buyers to do things and take risks they wouldn't even think about doing in person is, apparently, also the same that take a second bidder's max as their high bid and not whatever lesser amount they might prefer.
