Bide are intended to be binding and changing your mind is not considered a valid reason for a bid retraction. You can retract your bid,but there are only three valid reasons.you entered the wrong bid amount.the item description changed significantly after you placed your bid and you tried to contact the seller but were unable to do so. This explains bid retractions. This Is the bid retraction form. Here is eBay's invalid bid retraction policy. Bidding on eBay is not a game and you shouldn't bid unless you are fully prepared to pay for the item should you end upas the high bidder. Any questions about cost,etc.should be asked before you place any bids,not after.

Hello 'jomeym',

You can also ask the seller to cancel your bid for you. Doing that will most certainly place you on his blocked bidder list, but perhaps that's not a bad thing in this case. 🙂

In future, when you are shopping around and see things on ebay you like, just below that 'bid' button is the phrase Add to Watch list. If you click that, the listing is stored in your personal list of items you want to look at again later. You access your Watch List under the My eBay heading, or on the left column on your ebay page.

And of course, always thoroughly read every word of a listing, - especially that part about shipping.
