Tim, There is no law that allows you to actually pay your bids, though. I have been the beneficiary of many reneges on Ebay. I put in a lowball bid and somebody beats me. Then they don't pay up. So, the seller contacts me and asks if I'm willing to pay the winning bid price. Which I'm not. But I may be willing to pay a lower price and the seller seems to be fairly receptive to a haircut that comes with a Paypal the same day. <g> Ah, the techniques of the truly cheap.
