I realize that this is a little off topic, but it does cover cars and bidding.

I complained to Ebay a couple of weeks ago about a dealer that had put a certain 
vehicle up for auction and 6 weeks in a row pulled it in the last hour 
presumably because it didn't meet their minimum.  This was always advertised as a "No 
Reserve" auction.  Ebay's response was that sellers could pretty much do what they 
wanted to.  Then I reminded them that the sellers always had 
threatening verbiage about the legality of the bids that buyers place, and they 
basically said "oh well".  Guess this contract stuff only goes one way. They said that 
they cater to the big sellers and don't go after them for misrepresentations.

My rant for today.
