Yeah, I was only fast enough to snag one. And you should have felt my pulse as they were coming up :smiley1:

I thought, "this is too good to be true" - I paid for the item and my money was immediately refunded.

I contacted the seller and it was an honest mistake on his part. He accidentally listed them with a 99 cent BUY IT NOW price instead of a 99 cent starting price.

I know I could probably force him to go through with the deal, but I would want a little grace if it were me as the seller.

So....I let him out of the deal. And so did the other guy who snagged the other 3!!

They will be relisted soon.

I was the guy that got the other three. My phone rang about two seconds after the third one closed. It was him explaining the mistake and apologizing that he could not sell them for that much. If it was me I would have wanted the winner to understand also. Oh well, I kinda knew it was too good to be true, maybe for him it was a blessing I got three of the four. That way he didn't have to call four people and explain.
