Is it possible that shilling by AH's is advanced enough that when they do so, the 'outbid' email doesn't go out until they see some activity by the bidder? Just to keep the paper trail flexible? I don't know; however, shilling increases profit by enough that it makes sense.

Scott I didn't mean to suggest YOU made a mistake, I was thinking maybe the listing was just erroneous or something, a software glitch in the final price? Just speculating.
