Sure enough, but it *is* a free country. He's free to break the rules if he likes, as long as he's willing to take the consequences.

That said, how many of us have been involved in eBay auctions that seemed like something was strange with the bidding? Did you keep bidding? If so, you kind of have no one to blame but yourself for paying too much, right? You think eBay will let you off the hook even if something like that goes on? At least these guys get an out.
