they kicked him out. Maybe you should report those bidders.
Especially one of them, who has done like 60+ bid retractions in the last 6

You will need to pay fees. Talk to ebay, you have been scammed, I
fear.

Four bid retractions

Emne: OT: Strange ebay experience
The auction for my *istD was at $560 with five bidders when I went to
bed last night. This morning it's back at one bid and $400j. I've
contacted ebay to try and find out what happened. No communication yet.
Has anyone ever encountered this?
Paul
My auction gets weirder by the moment. The bidding has jumped to $577, and the
top bidder is a Hungarian who allegedly retracted his bid last night. Perhaps
his bid was retracted accidentally by ebay ???
