The seller is supposed to sell to the highest bidder if he/she ends the auction with-in the last 12 hours of the auction. If he, or she, refuses to sell the item, Ebay can impose a penalty but don't think that doing so will force the seller to sell you the item. He, or she, will likely just take the Ebay repromand and keep on going.
I could be wrong about this so you might want to check further.
