eBay auction blunder raises questions

Andre Souang thought he scored the deal of a lifetime when he won a $140,000 Bentley for $14,000 on eBay last month.

But when he went to make his payment, managers at Bentley Scottsdale refused to take his money, told him the car wasn’t for sale and disavowed the auction listing as a mistake.

Bentley Scottsdale’s refusal to sell was followed by a form message from eBay saying the auction had been canceled for unspecified reasons. The company scraped any trace of the auction from its website and from Souang’s account.

Within hours of the Oct.25 auction, it appeared as if the car had never been for sale at all.
