That's an interesting point about the fees.
I can't remember at which point fees are deducted from a seller.

Is it only after the buyer's money has cleared into the seller's account, is it after a set time period, or is at as soon as the BIN button is hit?

I hope this particular seller doesn't read this and have nightmares, but I'm not sure I would risk a stunt like that without knowing the full workings of fees.

Someone hits the button by mistake and you get hit with a huge ebay fee even though the buyer can't pay? I'm sure that safeguards must be in place to prevent this, look at that 'General Lee' car that sold recently for $10million and the buyer couldn't pay. Do ebay 'write it off', or is someone liable for the fees if it's a no-sale? I imagine no-one has to pay, but it's sort of asking for some joker to click the button, costing you the listing fees at least.

fees are applied as soon as the item sells. So when the BIN is hit, and invoice is created. If the buyer doesnt pay, the seller can fill out a form, and get re-embursed for the fees.

I am sure the seller was disappointed that this sold for only $40 instead of the $1,000,000 BIN price...
