Answer 1

nope

Answer 2

Your bid is a legally binding contract.

However, you can email the person that is hosting the auction, and ask that they allow you to retract the bid.  If both of you agree, then you can notify Ebay.

If they are not willing to work with you, then you can just hope that someone outbids you.

Answer 3

You can retract a bid or a Best Offer for the following reasons:

1.  You make a typographical error and enter the wrong bid amount. For instance, you bid $99.50 instead of $9.95. If this occurs, enter the correct bid amount immediately after you retract your bid. If you do not place another bid, the retraction will be in violation of eBay's policy and could result in your suspension. Please review the retraction guidelines if you need to retract your bid.

2.  The description of an item you have bid on changed significantly after you placed your bid.

3.  You cannot contact the seller. This means that you tried to call the seller, but the seller's phone number doesn't work, or that you have tried emailing a message to the seller and it comes back undeliverable.

You can retract a bid with more than 12 hours left before the listing ends. When you do this, all your previous other bids will also be eliminated. Be sure to bid again if you are correcting a bidding error that you made. You cannot retract the bid during the last 12 hours of the listing, unless the seller agrees.

Please contact the seller to request that your bid be canceled. However, it is up to the seller's discretion whether or not to cancel your bid.

If you place a bid with less than 12 hrs left for bidding, you can retract a bid within one hour of placing it. In this case, only that bid will be retracted; any other bid you placed before the last 12 hours of the listing remains valid.
