As for Mr. “pilota17” my advice is to give it back or pay the difference to the charity. Regarding eBay, I am not sure their system allows incremental restrictions on bids and therefore it is not entirely eBay’s fault for this goof up.”The news wire originated this reaction was printed under LB Prix: Winning bid gets in at the wire launched: 01/27/2006 12:00:00 AM by A.J.
