    cannot rescind the contract based on his unilateral mistake

    Explanation:

    Wilbur cannot take his auction back because as per the online auction he did not notice about his mistake and when the contract has been done it cannot be changed as it was already declared by another party legally. So he needs to take care while was filling the form online and need to do crosscheck about his rates to $40 instead of $400.

    Hence, due to the acceptance of an offer by the second person he cannot rescind the contract.
