High guys.

I need an opinion from a seasoned vet. I was recently following what I saw as a fantastic lot in an EBAY auction. Many great razors from an old barbers collection. The auction was suddenly cancelled with about 22 hours to go! There seemed to be regular bidding heading toward a possible war, which I had heavy artillery prepared for. Many of you likely came across it, as I did, and watched in anticipation, only to have the plug pulled (citing an error in initial bid or reserve). Surely this is wrong. Is this common place? I messaged the vendor asking about a relist with no reply.
I smell a rat. What do you think?
