Anyone on board bidding/going to bid on this eBay lot?

f.w.i.w. I just noticed the bid on that lot dropped a precipitously. I'm guessing because of the zero feedback bidder.

Bid retraction... but not by the zero feedback bidder.

The zero bidder is probably legit. The retracting bidder was probably the party with intentions of holding Ed hostage. While I am not an Ebay sleuth there are those on the board that can probably ID the retracting bidders identity.

The retracting bidder was legit. The zero feedback bidder has no intentions of paying.

We have no idea either of these bidders prior, however this is absolutely not tolerated in our auctions as to retract bids so late without contacting me first and getting our OK!..It is 3:55 PM, just returned from my real job and to see this is pretty zany, did receive a PM that I really do not understand but I understand Late retractions. This is not fair to the bidders that follow our rules, and those are very clearly posted..We will close this auction NOW, and both bidders cannot bid & are blocked temporarily until someone can explain to me why this has occurred and who will be legitimately bidding. THIS IS THE ONLY THING, I DO NOT WANT TO WASTE TIME, hopefully Leon or Dan, could you private message me to let me now which is bidder or if both are OK..Thank You> Larry

You never responded to my PM or message. I am the bid retractor. I am legit...you should know that, as I bought a high dollar card from you before.

Hi-We posted this morning, then you PM'd between that time and when we returned which was about 6 hours later, we work during the day so patience would be reasonable for a response.

I did see you PM'd, I really do not understand what you were saying in that e mail or why anything got retracted without us OK and agreeing to that thru e bay, that is why I cancelled everything.

I really do not know which ID you use on e bay so post that ID, we will let you bid once relisted, HOWEVER we absolutely will not tolerate anyone with late retractions(within 24-48 hours of close) without prior authorization which will be done same day, usually evenings.

We appreciate you as a customer but no one should retract and do this without considering others, plus from other postings, there is more to this as someone (ZERO BIDDER) bid this up to a very UNREASONABLE amount, (fyi I am not that greedy).
