Xome.com Auction Winner?

[Dan Hoehn]

I recently bid on a property through xome.com and was outbid. I have since moved on and now they are coming back saying that the property is available to me because the highest bidder has backed out. I have a strong suspicion that the Auctioneer/Bank was the 'high bidder', which it clearly states in the terms of the auction that this is possible. Since I have moved on, I am still interested, but would like to get it for less than my highest bid. Has anyone had experience with this?

update - I spoke to customer service at Xome.com and they lowered my bid, and it is now under review by the seller.
