And if they did end the auction early it would be unethical? Come on!

I could give many examples such as this from various eBay categories. My point is that you can't have it one way for some categories and another way for other categories.
Obviously this situation is not what I was talking about since this is a baseball card forum. However, feel free to create some more strawmen.
