Memory lane Auction question

[AddieJoss]

Early into the auction I bid on a 52 topps Mantle in SGC 30 with a max bid. I was then outbid and then this past week, I rebid, and then was outbid again and let the card go. Then this morning I received an invoice that I had won the card. I never received a bid retraction email at any point. I am now wondering how this could happen and about the validity of the other bids on this lot.
Is there anyway to get proof of what happened and if it was isolated?

Did you see an outbid notice immediately after re-bidding?

Cory,

That seems strange. Do you still have the emails that indicate you were outbid after your final bid was placed?

I do not have the bids showing I was outbid (no reason to keep). I was not immediately outbid. It was a day or two later on. I even looked at all my bids and I was no longer high bidder on that item. I'm 100% positive on this. I told my we before I bid on it and she looked at the card and everything. Then when I got e email stating I was outbid, I told her and she asked if I would bid again and I told her no.

Maybe you can still recover the outbid notification email. If you just deleted it but didn't empty your trash folder it could be there.

It also couldn't hurt to call Memory Lane directly and ask them what happened. Maybe there's a reasonable explanation.

I watched that auction and it's a great looking card for the grade. Congrats if it ends up working out.
