Awww!! I wanted to see how far it would go... though don't reckon it would have got beyond 25k. I bet that's the last we hear about them. Snapped up and hidden away. 
looks like they have been "hidden away" for some time now anyways so I don't see how anything would change there.
also, if this happens to be the same person that wanted £50K previously because he would not accept £40K, then I rather doubt they have been "snapped up".
eBay cancelled the listing, not the seller. Seller is free to list it again.
I suspect the bidding would go up to around £50K, but not because someone would actually pay that.
I think it would be bid up to that point to "prove" that they are now "worth" that much, never mind that no sale or transfer of owner actually occurred.
The last 2 Peels I have seen on eBay were nothing but monkey business and shenanigans so I see no reason why this one would be any different.
I would like to be proven wrong. I have nothing against someone selling something and making money or someone paying lots of money for something.
As long as it actually happened. If it is all "pretend" so as to make it appear that there is a ready steady market of Buyers out there willing to pay £50K when in reality...there are not, then I have a problem with that.
Lack of transparency on the part of the Seller
-and other interested parties - contributes to this perception.
