Bid then retraction twice

Has anybody else had someone bid, retract, bid, retract then when the item did not sell offer a lower price?

No.

If a potential buyer ever retracts a bid, they go immediately onto my blocked buyers list so they can't come back and mess up another auction.

I would refuse the offer and block the bidder.

I agree with @jckl1957 one retraction, is one retraction too many and straight onto one's blocked buyer's listings.

Some place bids to see what a previous bidder has bid or to see if there is a reserve placed what the reserve is, then retract that bid, naughty, but it does happen !
