Default Cymbidium Bulb Turning Black, Leaves Yellowing

Hi guys, I just registered! I'm a newbie to the orchid world, and already I'm running into problems. I bought this lady on e-bay about 2 weeks ago, and she wasn't in the best of health when she arrived, but now she's taken a turn for the worse. I've got some really, really bad pics here to illustrate what's going on:






My month of orchid experience leads me to suspect that she tried to throw up a spike while in transit and then it took a turn for the worse...... But now it's spreading to the bulb. Please help me save this young lady, she wasn't cheap and she has a gorgeous spike on the other side that is slowly yellowing and breaking my heart!

Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated!
