I was trying to think about what to do if the seller didn't accept my cancel request and I was fully prepared to delete my PayPal account and just never use eBay again.

That's pretty rough, but I'm sure you'll find another one! You probably shouldn't pay too much more than that either; I sold a PS3 with a broken disc drive (but working hard drive) for $35 two years ago. If you look around I'm sure you'll find one for a similar price or perhaps even less.

btw doesn't matter if seller accepts or not, at least here (ebay Germany) it is stated in the conditions that you can cancel an order if there is was an obvious mistake in bidding, forgetting the "." between numbers is, of course, also part of it.
Would be really strange if it wasn't like this in the US, too.
