You gotta be careful about the "second highest bidder" thing. I was selling my Grandfathers old cameras about a year ago, and the final bid was $1700.00. eBay charged me a small fortune, and the winning bidder emailed me and said he changed his mind, and for me to just sell to the second highest bidder for a $25 loss. Problem was, this jerk kept bidding and bidding until he had the high bid. Granted, the 2nd place guys high bid was $1675.00, but if the winning yahoo hadn't gone nuts, the 2nd place guy would have won it for $1300.00, and that was all he was willing to pay. I eventually got my money back from eBay, and cleared $1300 for the cameras, but I also feel like I got robbed of $400.

Take care
