I was wondering if there was a Cancel button for bidding, so the bid price will go back to the previous bidder. I accidentally bid for something which i afterwards realise it was too expensive, but no one else bidded for it so i have to buy it. I hope that there will be a Cancel bid button

Hopefully this will never happen.

Nope, you can't cancel a bid.

And I am completely against a system that cancels bids - much like in a real auction house. You're supposed to think about it plenty of times and consider thinfs before bidding on them, a cancel option would just make people bid everywhere like crazy and then withdraw at the last second for whatever reason.

Whenever I go to the AH I always auto-buy - and the few times I've bidded is because I've seen a recipe I need at a good price with a short time tag slapped on it.
