Lesson learned; Max bid on eBay

I thought you had 12 hours to retract your bid. I didn't read every reply. Was that misinformation?

You can retract a bid any time during an auction, except within the last 12 hours. You can't retract a bid within the last 12 hours. Also, you can't retract a bid after the auction.

There are certain protections you still have after the auction, but eBay has to be involved. For example, if you realize you 'won' a fraudulent card, eBay can cancel the auction (even after it's over).

That might explain why I never had a problem. I either put in a token bid, trying to steal it, which got outbid early and often most of the time or I bid strong enough to hold the bid into the final 12 hours....

Different card, but more of the same, half price on the second time listed, my guess is its still not sold.....

LOL This is why even thought that seller has an item I would really really like I am not going to bid.
