If some knucklehead placed the auction for the dealer and made a simple mistake that he's liable to lose his job over, I couldn't in good conscience take the car. Definately not worth it.
I suppose that'll all flesh out.

1. That was not a mistake. Offering an item at no reserve is conscious decision to get more action. You have to be deliberant to set an auction as no reserve and there are plenty of similar cars set with a reserve. An easy browse through EBay will would garner even a 1st timer enough info to list the auction correct.

2. Every auto dealership is quite versed in auctions as they buy and sell cars at auto auctions weekly. Auctions are an integral part of the auto business.

3. I could care less if someone loses their job over this. People get fired all the time and often over much less.
