you can retract it and choose "bid entered in error" or something like that.
If you do it lots it will attract the attention of the powers that be but if this is your first time it will be fine.
go to "customer support" tab and search for retracting bid

Are you admitting to being a stamp collector ? 
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

Message seller asking if he can cancel your bid, if he wont then just tell him to relist and offer the difference. Is it too expensive to just buy and
sell anyway?

yep, im a stamp collector, but only Italion stamps, and have a rather impressive collection, that will be going to auction next year
problem is, i called wifey at home to put a bid on a stamp, and she did, but wrong one!
actually, my mistake as i told her sg85, but meant sg90, so it is my mistake

I have messaged the seller, but no response, and i could buy the stamp, as it appears to be a better one than i have already
But thats not the point!

Use the following form:
http://offer.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?RetractBidShow
I've retracted bidsa few times on stupid last minute bids that I realised I would never use (much better than just not paying), I would only
ever do it as a last ditch thing as it then means someone else can have it without any of the hassle.
You can just retract a bid and say it was the wrong amount but then 'forget' to re-bid.

You can retract a bid anything up to the last 12 hrs of the end of the auction, click this link to do it.
