The Dread Spirits of eBay SUCK. The auction I was stalking is now officially out of the range of what I should pay for one necklace. Dammit, dammit, dammit. Because that ankh pendant in the lot? Is one I have been trying to find for YEARS. [link]

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Could you resell the rest?
Jilli, can you email the eventual winner and offer to buy just that one piece?
eta: X-posty. Maybe Jesse's idea is better.
The day spa gift certificate seems like a good idea, but google isn't finding me any day spas near where they live. (They live on an Air Force base, and it looks like it's a long drive to get to the nearest city.)
msbelle, you are the awesomest.
OK, SERIOUSLY?!?!
For once the project I'm working on (just starting) has locations in my area--two, in suburbs of Seattle. They just sent out the list...and I've got NEITHER of them. WTF?! They've both been given to a woman in Vancouver. She also has one San Diego and one LA-area. I've got Hawaii, 2 San Francisco, 2 LA, and one San Diego. Really?!?!?!
re: that auction, SOMEbody was a Witchblade fan. I love Jesse's idea. You could sell individual pieces on Etsy for much more than the lot is going for on ebay--if you wanted to go to the trouble.
I don't want to tempt you past due prudence, but it seems like an opportunity to get what you want AND make an eventual profit. If you can make that work for you.

Pete would ... not be keen with that idea, especially considering I'm still paying off my Burton + Elfman boxset. But dammit! Bladed ankh, like from The Hunger!
(I have an ankh just like that, but it has long since lost the sheath.)
