Here's the email I sent them:

Hello,

I attempted to purchase the PRS500U yesterday on the reverse auction but your system has a serious design flaw that prevented me from doing so. I waited until there were three units left and the price was $70. When I tried to 'Buy Now' the site told me you were sold out. I tried this several times, refreshing the page, with no luck. At 9:55 PM, there were still 3 items listed as available, but yet I could not buy one.

Did you actually intend to sell me the device at that price or was this all a ruse? I am very disappointed. If there were none left, why did the auction page not reflect this? Needless to say, I have zero trust in this system and will not participate in any reverse auctions in the future. What a TOTAL waste of my time.
