What do you think to this, a seller messaged me to say I was second highest bidder and t

A seller messaged me to say i was the second highest bidder and the high bidder had pulled out and did i want the coin for £758, i thought about it for a while and decided i did, after messaging back and forth for over 2 hours the seller said ive put it on buy it now for you, click on and buy it, before i could someone else did and bought it,  asked the seller what had happened, he said sorry regards, i asked him to sort it he said he couldnt do anything about it as the buyer bought it in good faith end of matter, he could have emailed the other person, if he was a decent person he would have done something about it, completely wasted 2 to 3 hrs of my time at work, i think it stinks he can treat people like that,  id be interested in other peoples views   regards  michael

I am afraid that both you and the seller need to learn about how ebay works.

 

All he had to do was make a Second Chance Offer to you as the underbidder. No one else could possibly have jumped in as it would be exclusively for you.
