Title: HUGE eBay bug/problem ?!
Post by: Jose on February 10, 2008, 04:42:08 PM

So I was bidding on this Linux satellite/pvr and the item had more than 8 bids and was up to 90£ or so. I bid 102.5 on the final seconds and now it shows one bid of 0.99£ as the only and winning bid!!!!
Item is HERE (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=130196483952&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=003)

Seller must be really pissed off...

:pint:

Perhaps or the seller chuse to pull the auction in the last secound as price wasn't high enough... cause according to the bid history all bids was canceled due to "item not longer for sale" with last cancelation done 2 sec before the auction "ended".

looks to me that the scorpion2005 account is a shell account owned by the seller to push up his auctions.

I see, didn't look at the bid history...
Dunno if it's a shell account, if that's the case he could just cancel the listing to avoid the lower price.

Nah, I'm sure he pulled it so he could fix all the typos :-D
