    Don't know what happened though.

    Something has to be wrong there. He even spammed the word "PSA" in the title! The card did end on Columbus day at noon eastern time ... not the best time to end an auction.

    Looks like he tried to cancel all bids but a couple got through before he could pull the auction. Lame on the seller's part, imo. If you don't want this to happen,
    don't start an auction out at a low price with no reserve.

    Wow check out that bidding history like Grote pointed out.

    I have never seen anything like that before.

    High bid $60.50 canceled because of terrible bids.

    WOW.

    Grote is right on the money. The seller got what he deserved imo.

    I didn't even think to look at the bids. Nice touch on the explanations. Cross him off the seller of the year list, LOL.

    That seller was buying Clemens cards for crazy money a few years ago before Clemens got in all the trouble.


    Thanks,

    I don't get it??

    looks like he probably got an offer to do a deal off line and accepted it, and ended the listing early

    He was cancelling the bids due to them being too low, but for some reason, was only able to do them one at a time instead of by bulk.

    By the looks of it, he figured out the cancel bids part (sorta - lol), but didn't realize that you have to actually end the listing also.

    This card is getting lost in the mail and the money refunded.

    It may not even get "put in the mail". May be a "I didn't realize that I sold it earlier off eBay. Sorry for the inconvenience."
