Default Did you ever...

bid on something on eBay that you really want, but shouldn't really buy and end up spending the rest of the 7 day auction half wanting to win and half wanting to be outbid? The wife's gonna kill me...

Ooh, bugger I'm still the top bidder. The only way I can afford it is by not buying MrsREV any Xmas pressies

Still, I have wanted one for 25 years.

Dave

I told you last night that if you turn the spam filter off you'll get loads offers to enlarge your pen1s at a fraction of the price of that what you bid for on ebay.

Just accept it, Mrs Rev wont mind if you get her the perfume and lingerie again this year!

Been there, only on cheapish CD's and stuff, but thats because I thought I wanted it but in reality I didn't, plum!!

Very curious to see what you've bid on,
something i've wanted for 25 years
An original Raleigh Chopper??, were they still making them in 79 or had the Grifter and its smaller siblings become the bike of choice by then.

Give us a clue is it a gadget??

Nuts, got outbid as expected. At least I won't be made homeless by MrsREV just before Christmas. I told her what I bid on and as expected, she went ballistic. Apparently she has no sense of style

Say what you like, he was a top guy. He went out of his way to answer my questions and took extra photos. Although he thought I was crazy for wanting to drive it 300 miles home (old 1300 engine and a 4 speed box on the motorway, it's the stuff of dreams, man!)

What I meant was I don't care, because I don't judge people like that, I judge them on how they treat me
