Quoting eBay_Addict00: "Some sellers refuse to sell to buyers who kite in and snap up the prize without having established a bid at least several hours in advance."

Those sellers are in violation of eBay rules and should be reported. The vaunted "contract" that eBay has always claimed to exist between buyer and seller cuts both ways. Even as the buyer has an obligation to pay, so does the seller have an obligation to sell to the winning bidder. The only exception is when the latter has been specifically restricted by the seller from bidding on any of the seller's auctions, in advance of the auction.
