Great point.  I hadn't gotten that far in my thinking.  I wonder if the seller 
can simply report that the high bidder was a deadbeat.  

Perhaps as long as Paypal doesn't see the purported funds, this might be easy 
for them to do.  Still it seems they'd have listing fees, which would be 
minimal.
