Just to play devil's advocate here Brian, we had a discussion a while back about the fact the the UCC guarantees the right to retract any bid before such time as the item is considered sold. You also can't "sign away" your UCC rights. An auction house can refuse a bid, so if someone has a retraction with you, you can decide not to do business with them in the future. You can even cancel all their current bids and ban them, but once you accept their bid, technically you HAVE to accept the retraction.

Thanks, Scott. That said, I still think eBay poses more minefields for bidders and allows for more impropriety than a platform like REA or Heritage, where bidders are vetted and some standards are enforced.

Couldn't agree more. Basically any platform that doesn't consistently enforce their rules is a minefield. It allows for, at the very least, the appearance of a protected class of customer, and can be a huge turn-off for people who actually obey the rules. Ebay isn't out to protect anyone, so the burden is on sellers to provide and enforce rules. When that is done selectively, or not at all, you wind up with the wild west where anything goes.

The Heritage/REA examples are more akin to changing/lowering/raising your SNIPE bids with ebay.... which I am sure we have all done at some point.
I personally tinker with my snipe bid amounts all the time, based on another pricey item I may have won recently, or a car needing unexpected repair, or a better-than-expected bonus at work, etc. The bid amount really doesn't matter until the snipe goes off. Bid retractions, on the other hand..... not ok!  There's a huge difference between the two.
