if it is under the price of litigation (cost of legal action to enforce), then the seller can do what ever he pleases. possesion is 9/10ths of the
law.

The seller can do what ever he or she wants, but if a seller & buyer come to a mutual agreement, then the seller pulls out, well in my eyes ,
thats a low act,

But is it also not a low act to purchase something that has great value but the seller is unaware of? Morals who needs them? just file them all in the
box marked "grey area"

according to my high school economics memory...
if you are a legal owner of something eg hubcap, and you put up for sale with a $5 price sticker on it, that is what you would call "invitation to
treat". If man walks up with $5 in his hand and says "I'll take that", then you have the "offer". You can pick up the hubcap and walk away quite
legally. If you say "OK" then you have "acceptance". You no longer own a hubcap and he owes you $5.
The buyer could pull out legally if you say its a VW hubcap but its really a datsun hubcap, but thats about it. Regardless of whether the item is a a
bargain for the buyer or a lottery for the seller, the legals would be the same.
So if you dont accept the $5 and pull out that makes you a bastard, but acting legally. If you accept the offer of $5 and then pull out, you're an
illegal bastard. If he pulls out while you are considering $5 he's a bastard. If you accept and he then pulls out, he is an illegal bastard.
Neither of you will pursue it if either renege especially if it isnt signed on paper, but he/you are still a bastard.

target and kmart waste millions of dollars a year accepting refunds and exchanges they dont need to do. They arent obligated to exchange a shirt if it
doesnt fit unless the label in it is wrong. All the refunds and exchanges of things people dont want/already have/received 2 of/doesnt fit/wrong
colour dont need to be refunded unless you were misled into buying it. They only do it because the other one does it and consumers would always go
there if they have the choice. Long queues of bastards everywhere starting boxng day. And those contracts are written on paper.

If You own it and change Your Mind....
it may not be a good thing for the buyer...
especially if they have travelled to pick it up and pay for it...
but its still Yours..... until money has changed hands.... IMHO..
so, The seller or buyer can be upset.... after the price is changed....
it May not be ethical.... but it does happen....
---------------------------
At a swap meet... You buy something You think is cheap but then later realise it was too expensive....
or sell something too cheap...
but don't realise until later....
its all too late once You have sold it... or bought it...
