I think there are a couple factors to consider. 1) Was it an obvious pricing mistake like Peter said 2) What's the dollar amount involved? $5 or $10 not really a big deal, just sell the card and move on. Several hundred dollars, that's a different story. 3) How long was the card listed? If it was bought 5 minutes after being listied, the seller didn't really have a chance to review his listings to make sure it was accurate. If its been listed for 3 days, they shad time to find the error. I know I review my listing once I upload them just to make sure everything shows as I intended.

People can't always make everything so black and white. Sometimes it's easy to see that there are grey areas.

Everyone needs to have and show integrity. If a seller lists something at the obviously wrong price, there is no reason why he would have to honor the price, because it was, in fact, a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. Integrity always has to run both ways. In this case, it would be up to the buyer to have integrity and accept the seller's explanation that the price was unintentionally wrong. (I am, of course, talking about a relatively wild discrepancy in price here, not an almost negligible difference in price or a case of the seller playing Monday morning quarterback.)

If, on the other hand, the seller knowingly lists an item at a certain price, but only later realizes he should have tried to get more for it, then it would be shame on him and he would have to show integrity and accept the final sale price.

The card was a PSA8 1968 OPC Bud Harrelson for $10, I knew I was getting an good deal but not ripping off the seller. The card was listed at least 2 full days before I pulled the trigger.

EBay is making me wait 7 days before I can leave negative feedback, which I will be doing.
