How fair is this?


I just noticed a interesting auction. The seller states that his item is listed on both Audiogon and Ebay. And which ever site gets the highest bid, wins. Maybe its just me, but I am hoping he gets no bids on either site.

That's BS! If I win an auction, I expect that item. If I don't get it, I'm leaving bad feedback.

Seandtaylor99 I'll bet you'd be singing a different tune if I was a buyer and you were selling an amp and I was playing you against another seller.
Not fair at all. If I bid on something on Ebay and I win. I expect that item. Period. If I don't get it, I'm leaving negative feedback.
Seandtaylor99, ever here of a contract????

An offer to sell at a certain price and an offer to buy at a certain price constitutes a contract in the most simple of terms.

Can anyone really imagine going to any auction anywhere, being the winning bidder and having the auctioneer say, oh sorry, we decided to sell it to someone else.

Don't be stupid.
Sendtaylor99; Practically, I agree with your perspective of the situation. My point was in principal.

What if both auctions end at the same price with two different people "winning"?
