I've been using Ebay since 2004 both as seller and buyer and I've never had any problems bidding on items until now. The last two items I've bid on, the first a couple of weeks ago and one tonight my bid was accepted but someone came in at the very end and won the item with a bid which was LESS than my maximum bid!? That has never happened in the past, I could understand it if the winning bidders amount was higher than my maximum but it wasn't i.e I bid on an item tonight with a maximum of £9.30 with about 10-15 secs left and received the Ebay response I was the high bidder but then someone else bid seconds later and won the item with a winning bid of £9.17! How does that work surely their winning bid would have to be more than £9.30?
