I assume LW bookmarked it last week before I had cancelled it?


No, I never looked at it before until last night.
And even if I did bookmark it, it doesnt explain why I was selecting it from
the browse list but it was showing me the wrong auction details.
I tried refreshing, shutting my broswer, even restarting windows and it still
showed the link with n minutes to run in one window, then finished when I
followed the link to the details. I never noticed the auction numbers were
different.

Of course, who knows what problems the Internet explorer cache might
introduce. Perhaps I did look at that item last week without remembering (I
honestly cant remember doing that though), and by some means it was pulling it
out of the cache.

I did look at the 'view sellers other auctions' last night too but this is
still an up todate list and shouldnt have the old auction in it.

And I did look at Scotts web page last night at
http://www154.pair.com/eh105jb/tmp/AUCTION/seemy.htm

But both of these only point to the new auction, not the cancelled on.

Oh Well.
