I've dropped it before but this link explains the process... It's not the most clear, but it's as described above...Basically if there's only 1 item left, it's a fight to the finish. If there's 100 of something, the first 99 to checkout get a 5 minute lock, the last bunch of people are a race to finish checking out. The same thing apparently happens for items dropped out of a cart, which makes sense, as the scenario is basically the same.

did you get past the shipping page? or did it say sold out once you pressed next/tried to go to payment ?

If you were going to the payment page vs. on it. Pretty sure it wasn't held. If you were on it, I'm...not sure.
Shipping Address Page(not held)>Confirm Shipping Method(pretty sure not held) > Payment Info (held)
