Bidder "A" has added a zero and she meant to put in 22.00 instead of 220.00. Her high bid was meant to be 22.00. Now the Bidder "B" is up to 47.00 but Bidder "A" just keeps getting her amount raised.
What to do?? Can I cancel all the bids and cancel the auction and start over or is this allowed???

You (the seller) can cancel all bids by a bidder so the he/she won't get a "bid retraction" mark against him/her.

I agree with Neglus. You should go ahead and cancel the mis-guided bid. At least then you still have a bid and realistic chance of a sale. DO NOT WAIT FOR THE BUYER TO REMOVE THE BID. If they already let you know it was a mis-placed bid, chances are they will not figure out how to remove it until it is too late. Do it yourself and move on.

Sorry _ I should have said that there was only 8 hours remaining in the auction when she placed the incorrect bid
