If I remember correctly, bidder nuber two does not have to take just one. eBay says that if you bid on multiples in a Dutch and don't get the full amount you don't have to take any.

The high bidder gets one at $4.85, the second bidder has the *option* to buy one at $4.85 - he can refuse to, since he didn't get the two that he wanted.

Also, bidder #2 may refuse to buy just the one.
Bidders can refuse partial quantities. For example, if you place a bid for 10 items and only 8 are available after the auction, you don't have to buy any of them.

Thanks all. Nice to have an "auxiliary" memory to call on here....Now can anybody tell me where I put my other pair of glasses?

HCQ, will you email me please? Want to inquire about a quilt. Try finding your auctions, but your name must not be the same on ebay. Thanks, Kelly email [email protected]

It's all Greek... err, Dutch to me! I just won one from one of our illustrious posters -- I let eBay figure out how much I owed!
