Default Opps! I guess I goofed

I am the high bidder for not one but two 1917 Collins-McCarthy. AFTER bidding I went to Old Cardboard and found that they are obviously heavily trimmed. OC says they should be 2 X 3.25 inches with a border all around. Not sure what I was thinking. Not the stupidest thing that I have EVER done in my life but it ranks up there on today's list.

Default Simply retract your bid

Hello,

Since the cards are not in EX or VG condition...I would retract your bid since the description was incorrect.


Good Luck,


Patrick

Patrick, eBay says I cannot retract the bids because over an hour has passed.

Well, it never hurts to ask. I asked the vendor to cancel the bids because of the unlisted trimming and what do ya know ..he did.

Default Retract

I have only retracted a few bids over the years for it items that were incorrectly described.

If the description was inaccurate, which it clearly is in these two auction, then you shoud be able to retract your bid. Not sure if their rules have changed in this regard.

Good Luck,


Patrick
