It's the first time i've ever seen that message. the item ended up selling at $102. *so someone had the same idea as me and bid at the last second.
now, i dont know if he put more than $110, but i had a shot if it wasn't for that dang message.

It's only because the seller wouldn't be covered under the Paypal Seller Protection Policy if they accepted your winning bid. They must have a feature to reject those bids automatically now. The seller probably had some bad experiences.
