I had a wierd ebay experience recently. I was watching an item that had a "buy it now" as well as the option to place a bid. I thought that with the first bid the "buy it now" option expired. But it didn't. Bidding occured over the space of a day and the "buy it now" remained. Bidding got hot but never reached the reserve. When the high bid got very close to the "buy it now" price (but still below reserve) someone executed the "buy it now" option and it worked. Isn't that wierd? Did ebay change policy on the "buy it now" feature?
