Oh, it would be nice, but don't hold your breath.  Just this week, I've
heard back from someone who said he was going to buy something from me,
but now he'd kinda changed his mind, so sorry.  The one that really
annoyed me, however, was the person, who within 24 hours did the following:

1) Got an offer from me on something originally advertised without a price.
2) Accepted that offer and asked for my shipping address
3) Wrote back to say that my offer had been topped, did I want to counter-offer
4) Got a counter-offer from me that was higher than the then top offer
5) Wrote back to say that he'd sold it.

Hey folks, if you want to auction things off, try to play with a consistent
set of rules that you decide on before you start.  :-(
