You'll be happy to hear that this happened to me a few times previously. Since it was with your favorite now-defunct AH, you'll be even more delighted.

Luckily, the last time it happened, the non-paying bidder got burned, because it was August 2020, and the item turned right back around and sold for 20% more in the next month's auction.
