Can sellers yank auctions on ebay?

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>Ok, so I'm probably just a bit personally upset, but I was high bidder on the T206 set that just vanished with less than 1 day left in the bidding. Is it eBay's generally accepted practice to allow sellers to cancel an auction if they don't like the price action?<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=013&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=230143704545&rd=1&rd=1" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=013&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=230143704545&rd=1&rd=1</a>

He says he listed in the description that a re-print Wagner is included but still...<br /><br />And yes, i believe he can end it 12 hours before it ends, not sure though...

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>He probably found a buyer...and decided to make the transaction off ebay.....why not? He's only liable for a $4.80 listing fee....all that seller fee money stays in his pocket. Would piss off a bunch of folks...but oh well I guess.
