She contacted my friend and told him that she was refunding his money and that she wasn't going to send the item. He responded telling her that the "bid is a contract" works both ways and if she didn't fulfill the contract he was bringing suit. She sent the pipe.
I bought a mint Goldedge via BIN for something like $12. Seller said it was a mistake, refused to send it, and relisted the item. I opened a case with Ebay, but they didn't do a think about it. When I left the seller negative feedback, saying that she refused to send the item after I won it; she sent me back hatemail.

The internet is a funny place...
