Comon guys give Tom a break... We see everyday on ebay listings the the owner has the item for sale elsewhere. Tom gets a full price over and now you roast him over the fire? You could have emailed Tom asked the price and bought it. TO MY KNOWLEDGE ebay does not prevent you from taking items off if they are no longer available.
If you guys have a beef, its with ebay. Email them and tell them you want the sellers to guarantee items will be sold to the highest bidder. To date that is not a requirement on ebay...
