A perverse pleasure!

Post by Peter-S »

So I won something on ebay today, not for the Capri for once. I left a winning bid last night, got home earlier and I'm the winner. There was one other bid during the day from someone who waited until 6 seconds before the auction ended and then missed out by 8p. I get a sort of perverse pleasure from visualising some going to all that trouble and getting so close but ...
I should probably get out more :lol:

Sounds like they were using a piece of sniping software. But even so, well done for winning!
