I listed an item for £6 and immediately had an offer of £40, which I rejected politely saying I never end an auction early. This same buyer continued to bid the item up to £61, the current winning bid by another buyer.
Suddenly he retracted his bid citing the age old 'entered incorrect amount' two days later. Turns out his retracted bid was £60 and he entered an amount of £8. Some typo! The item then fell back to £13.
I seem to remember that there was always an ability to retract a bid if you had made a typo but this had to be within a very limited timescale. Reading discussion boards it seems to me that this is now being exploited in a big way.
What do other sellers think?
