I am outraged! Last night I bid on auction at Ubid

Hewlett Packard Pavilion 520C Athlon XP 1600+

Since I was willing to bid more for the item- I followed the bid process until it expired. No other bids were posted and the auction closed on time with me as the winning bidder. I counted down the seconds until the 'auction closed' page appeared using the refresh button. The auction was not extended.

About 10 minutes after the auction closed- I logged in to 'my page' and the item appeared under 'Closed Winning Bids'. My page explicitly stated that I had successfully won the item.

This morning after not receiving the win confirmation email- I log into 'my page' and now the item is no longer posted under winning bids... it now says I lost the auction to another bidder. I am flabbergasted!

I contend Ubid defrauded me by canceling my low-dollar bid. Watch out... the fix is on at ubid
