Some newbie with 0 rating keeps uping the anty.
People like that are why you gotta snipe.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ya, he sniped me, in the last 5 seconds.
ETA: correction, some one who didn't bid at all during the process came in the last 5 seconds and sniped it.

Usually I wait until the last minute and place a big much larger than the previous high-bid. Then if a newbie tries to snipe me, he still is usually under what my max bid is.

Man the board is fast these days. I barely had time to wonder if someone else would post something before my post that would make "bastard" the entirely wrong thing to say next.

no worries, bidding on a newer version of the same item. Currently 10% of new cost. Item I lost got up to 54% of cost of new item. We shall see. If it keeps me awake during tech, it's worth the money, even if I don't win. It's not like I **NEED** the gizmo.

But nooooo. I gotta low ball it, and pretend I'm in an auction house or something.

what is it, a game?Elgato Turbo.264
A gizmo that helps convert video files faster, so your CPU isn't slammed. Should convert files recorded in EyeTV on my computer faster so I can watch them on my Xbox on the big screen. I don't *need* it, and can't justify the $100 to buy it new. So ebay!

All is well that ends in pizza.
I've heard that before, and also that serious stress can be a trigger. Which makes sense, because Hubby's diabetes didn't manifest until he nearly died from kidney stone treatment, and mine appeared right after. And we both were seeing doctors regularly.
Yes, me, too. My doctors figure that the condition tat led to my tokhes (tuchus? tuckas?) surgery in 1993 or thereabouts triggered mine. Too bad it took ten years for me to get diagnosed.
Ironically had I not been keeping low carb all that time, it would have taken me down sooner.
