Actually the first guy put in a bid of 500 bucks almost guarenteeing a win,except the second guy had the same idea and the bidding went way over.....lesson learned..bidding a high amount you think no one would ever bet isn't always safe!
btw - look, the seller already left feedback.. it says they "negotiated" a price after the bidder entered the wrong amount? what the? why would the seller be willing to negotiate when he has a 2nd bidder @ $373.00?
i understand that the seller might not feel right by selling a $10 card for $383, but still, shouldn't he have offered it to the 2nd highest bidder prior to "negotiating" a lower price? what if the 2nd bidder REALLY was willing to pay $300+ for the card?
if the "winner" entered the wrong bid amount, which is lower than the 2nd high bidder, then the 2nd high bidder is actually the winner.. ?
The 2nd place bidder has no obligation to honor his bid after the auction ended. If the seller came to him and tried to "negotiate," then the 2nd place guy would have rightly offered to buy it at $2.99, the starting price, if the other bidder's bids weren't being honored. The seller was probably smart to stick with the high bidder. I wonder what the final price was.
