I'm Officially Annoyed!

[Harbidge]

Recently, I found a Beatles Butcher cover on eBay for $49.99. I decided to bid for it up to $70. (It wasn't in a nice state). It looked very much like I was going to win as there was 5 minutes left before finishing, and nobody else had put a bid in. I had to go to a lesson then. When I got back, I had lost the auction. This is because some BASTARD outbid me 6 SECONDS before the auction ended!!!

What an unfair world we live in.

Sorry about that, but I had to get it off my chest.

Nature of the beast--I had 3 YS items and 2 NY World's Fair books go bye bye that way.

You got snaked at the end. A common ebay practice.

I am really sorry for your loss Harb.

The Butcher covers are dreams of most of ours. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/cry.gif

you have to watch out for cheaters like that, my gramma is a big buyer off of ebay and she often loses bids becasue of those sneaky-low-down-losers.
i'm sorry you lost it, that was a great find

I had the same. In cases you really want an item, you should be a good watchdog and stay on top till closing. From the number of bids you can recognize sometimes that it may occur.

It's a bit ironic that you could have had it if you waited six more seconds. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubb/smilies/images/icons/smile.gif
