The listing has ended but the winning bidder has not completed for any number of reasons, so the seller has offered the second highest bidder the chance to buy.
I had other items to sell but just the one pair of shoes. As my last post it was pipped at the post by a different bidder, who made an immediate payment and left excellent feedback. The bidder had a 100% feedback as do I.
cupotee, please clarify if you are the buyer or seller.
I always use a snipe program to place my bid in the last second or two and as it is incremental I often win by a very little amount, regardless of how high my maximum bid is.
I often use Ebay Cup, at time Item sell, If you have an asking Price of say £10.00 and someone offers £9.50, the Item will not sell hence Second Chance Offer kicks in, you can contact the second bidder by their offer.
