I wasn't even in the auction, so I didn't get upset over missing a potential buy.

You've missed the point, I'm saying that the person who bid for 25 units was obviously the retailer trying to bulk up the price. It's this which I object to? If the retailer wanted to sell the TV's for minimum price, then they should have set a minimum price, that's their perogative. It's a bit unfair to change the rules mid-flow, and in real life auctions it is illegal for owners to bid against their own lots.
