Default Don't the "Heroes" who criminally tampered..

I would be angry because the comments they left in their bid retraction warn people off of the auction.

One of the advantages of being a power seller is that they give you an email address you can use to get decent support, one with an actual person who answers the emails.

If I were you, I'd send email to that alias and see if I could get eBay to delete the auction entirely, because it's spoiled because of the retraction comments, and refund the fees. Then I'd start over.

It's uncertain from reading the comments as to whether someone did this to you on purpose, or whether you just got random nonsense from the kind of people who would be confused enough to bid on a PRO card.

Regardless, the auction is wrecked.

I'd hope that the people who read this group wouldn't be so petty that they be behind this. However anyone feels about these auctions, it's not clear that Dr. Koos is doing anything wrong. Anyone who tries to wreck an auction is doing something wrong.

For whatever reason, eBay seems to take this kind of stuff pretty seriously. I had a pretty low feedback guy back out of an auction with a half-hour to go, after he had been high-bidder for most of the week, and while the high bid didn't drop much, the second bidder was suspicious of what was going on, and he backed out on the transaction. I complained to Safe Harbor that the first guy should be asked to be more careful with his bidding, and asked to realize that a bid retraction costs the seller money, time, and possibly a customer, and they NARU'd him.
