Mistakenly Bid On Own Auction

Just an accidental slip of the finger. Not really bothered about the token for bidding.

Just being open and transparent in case it appears as an attempt to boost the price.

Auction is for driver James Smith (no-one else has currently bid). If the devs want to re-set the auction, or not that's fine.

Just holding my hands up to having fat fingers.

Hi Richard, an auction can't be reset, but I see you've released him from your team. I returned to you the token you accidentally spent. Boosting the price by spending tokens wouldn't be very lucrative compared to converting them to cash, so no worries there :)

Thanks Yunus. Though that really wasn't the point of my post. I was slightly surprised it didn't have a confirmation pop up.

Fat fingers have hit perfect set up by accident loads of times but it asks me to confirm the purchase.

The reason for this is because auctions are highly competitive and time sensitive, whereas all other areas requiring a confirmation dialog aren't.
