I had my car on ebay because I had to pay some emergency bills and get my business started or I would not be selling my split. This guy bids on the last day, He called first. I shouldn't have allowed a Zero bidder to bid on Egay but.....I need the money. Well the day after the auction I get this email:

Hey Matt!!! I have to give you an apology for wasting all that time. I know that I messed up by bitting because I liked the Bug; however, I already own a type 2 and a bug kit car, so after talking to my spouse we decided it was not logical to make this move. Last night, I tried to take back the bitting, but I was unable to. There was no way to back off the bitting once it was in. I hope you can sell it to the other bitter before me. My apologies and I asure you that I will not go into the EBAY site any more while I still have 2 cars. Good Luck!!!!!!!!

No thats not cool CArlos. WE are not homies and you wasted a week of my time and cost me fees because you are an idiot?!?!?!
DOn't deal with this idiot.

That sucks. Unfortunately it apparently happens pretty often.
Is your car listed here?

File a complaint with E-Bay. I beleive that's a breach of contract.

Try the "back up bidder". Explain the deal and offer a "second chance".
Usually, that guy gets cold feet also, but it's worth a shot.

Yeah, for some there is the relief of not winning or they would have tried harder.
