AAARRGGGGHHHHH!
You ever want something on ebay so bad, and then you bid about 125% of what you think you should bid for it, and get to the last 4 seconds, and then get outbid? Even if you time it perfectly, and bid a ridiculous amount with like 9 seconds left, you either are too late, or you still get outbid.
I know about auction sniping and stuff, but it's been 4 times in the last 6 weeks that I've bid over $100 on something and lost in the final 5 seconds.
The latest was a lot of 13 UD Century Legends Hockey Epic Sigs, including Bourque, which is one of the better autos of the set. I needed 9 of the 13, so I figured I could get it for $175, and sell the four I didn't need to recoup some of the jack.
Didn't win.
Similar stories of exasperation and frustration?
