I am selling a OOP CD and I usually see it sell for about 40 to 60. Last night it went for 100.00 and the winner has a -1! He gotten 1 positive and 4 negative, 3 from same seller. I looked into bid history, and there was one guy with a number who pays promptly, he outbidded someone else with a -1, but then this new -1 guy came in and kicks him out!

Now here is the dilemma, IF I remove the bid of the current winner, then the winner will be the bidder with positive history, BUT I checked what he was bidding on, and he is the current winner of the same item from another seller, at a much much less price! So I could remove him as well, BUT then the other -1 will be the winner!

Is it best to just cancel the auction listing and start over again?

PS Odd that all this happens when someone else puts the same item up. Could one of the -1 be the other seller to kick out the potential buyer, or did the bidder with the positive feedback used one of his "bad" accounts to kick himself out so he can bid on someone else's cheaper?

If it's over, you can't do much.

If it's still running, then I would cancel their bid and add them to your blacklist.
