I know what you mean about not wanting to wait to long to ask a question.

Jabber is right, if the item discription or picture is missleading, that's a valid reason to retract a bid. You can also ask nice that the seller cancel your bid. They don't have to, but if they do, it will save you from having to retract.

If the seller has good positive feedback, it's because other buyers have been happy with their purchases. They are not trying to misslead you, and you should be satisfied too. Also check the feedback and click on the auction numbers to see if they sell only this type item, or sell a little bit of everything. If they sell a little of everything, (and maybe even if they don't) you may know much more about the item than they do.
