For whatever it’s worth....I sent him a message via eBay basically saying “what happened as I was going to do my serious bidding closer to the end of the auction” and he said he thought no one was interested and he kept getting emails offering $75, so he ended the auction early. I don’t quite know what to make of that, but that’s what I was told. So, it looks like mojo1986’s first idea is what the seller actually told me. *sigh*

Of course the “reserve” price is supposed to cover the “the price I wanted” aspect I suppose. I’m a very occasional seller and not really that active a buyer there, so I don’t know the intracies of all that....


Added later: I’ve had another exchange with the seller. He says he did not sell it and that he would repost it if he gets more queries like mine. He turned down my lowball offer (relative to what the last one sold for)....which didn’t surprise me.
