Ebay
I have a question. I was bidding on an item on Ebay and I was outbid a few days ago. Today I go into my Ebay and now it says that I am the highest bidder. Does anybody know why this happened? I didn't want to bid any higher and I placed bids on other items since I have been outbid. Should I contact Ebay? Thank you for any advice.

was it a new bid you supposedly made or did the bidding revert back to an earlier bid you made due to someone dropping out. Bidding history check should also reveal time of bid.

No it wasn't a new bid it went back to my old bid..I thought you couldn't get out of bidding on ebay?

The previous high bidder probably retracted his bid which is allowed

From your description, one of three things happened. Either your overbidder canccelled his bid, the seller cancelled your overbidder's bid, or Ebay Narued him (temporary or permanent suspended him) thereby automatically cancelling all of his active bids on all of ebay. |

Could you tell us what the item was? Might give us an idea if it was an obvious shill or not based on the bidding history.
I'm the last to cry "shill", but Ebay seems to be on a mission to become less and less transparent lately, and I "hate" retractions. Hurts buyers AND good sellers. |
