Atomicchick,
eBay's second chance feature is useful. What bugs me about it is that when I was re-offered an item, it was at the price as driven up by the person who bailed, NOT the price I would have originally won the item for. I know I bid up to $XXX, but this system makes it too easy for a fake bidder to drive up the price and allow the seller to extract more than they would normally. It may not be "shady", but it sure does invite it.
