You'd think that.  I got outbid in an auction recently and didn't get a • notice.

I didn't complain because I had decided in the meantime I had gone over the
top on that particular item, so I was relieved I didn't have to buy it (I
would never even consider retracting a bid unless there were extreme

Several times have I bid on an item and suffered "eBay remorse" when I
realized that I had *way* overspent myself. Luckily, someone with more
money/less sense than I have has always stepped up to relieve me of my
overbid. I have never retracted a bid, and I (usually) don't bid on things I
know I can't afford.
