The latest auction pitfall, disruptive bidders

[LVSteve]

I have not been burned on GB..........YET, but I am done with them. Most of my stuff comes from the forum, either in the For Sale or WTB sections. I did return 1 gun to the GB seller, it needed undisclosed work. My experience is, that if you need something from GB you are out of luck. I have never had them answer a message yet

What I describe in the OP was an auction accessed via Hibid. Never had a problem with any other Hibid connected auctions.

I thought the protocol for auction houses was that if a winning bidder defaulted, the losing bidder had the option to accept. not be forced to .

Any bids by the defaulting bidder should be nullified. Really the auction should run the item again.
