Very annoying. It was a bid with a Buy It Now. I've been after this for years so I bought it, but as luck would have it I got it an hour after it had been listed. I bet they were surprised at how quick it went and decided to try their luck at getting even more.
yeah - that's some bullshit. Unfortunately I don't believe there is anything you can do about it. I haven't ebay'd in a while, can you even still leave feedback for a cancelled order?
