Katie, you said "You misspelled the word ivory. Did you know that you can get a lot more money for your chips from ivory collectors if they knew the auction existed?" and if the seller had contacted you saying that he/she would like to end the auction early so that he could re-word it and get more money....you would have been p*ssed off about it!"

In fact, I would not have been p*ssed off about it, because I understand the rules that allow him to cancel the bids and end the auction early. Why would I begrudge him doing what he had every right to do?
