sometimes when im bidding some people really want that poke and will bid and bid non stop or have higher money than you and you dont have a chance to win it what i want is there should be a take back bid button
Note:that button will only work if your not the highest bidder

Why?
If you're not the highest bidder and the auctions ends, you get back your money eventually.

i know that but when the auction ends in like 5days and you really need that money that would be really helpful

I vote in favor of this suggestion. Another possibility is if another bid is much greater than yours and you can not cover it. So you can not participate in another auction, until you have your money back, or unless you really have a lot of money.

I support. No point in just leaving it there when you don't intend on bidding anymore, and I can't see any real negative effects, so why not?

The point is that if you're the highest bidder you shouldn't be able to retract your bid.
But if you're not you should get your money back instantly. How about that?

I support the idea of getting my money back the instant I am outbid. For example in real auctions, be them online or in the real world, you don't link your PayPal account or throw money on the item you want, place the money down, and wait for the auction to be over.

And of course this isn't real auctioning but just to show that as an example. I'm not sure why this would be bad either, it's not as if you getting your money back will make things difficult. And since you've been outbid by someone else, you getting your money back won't effect anyone else involved.

It's your money and you need it now .3.

A pretty recent update from Riako does this automatically as soon as you're outbid. Implemented!
