So what happens to those who bid/win but don't pay?
I would also assume, after some time has passed, that the A/H corrects the sold price to that of what the underbidder bid?
Just thinking? What would happen, with the unbidder thinking he didn't win, all of a sudden being told he told? Is he now obligated to purchase the card? What if he spent his money elsewhere before he found out? What happens in that case?
