Put it this way - you might have been up against Lemur...

So no amount of extra pence would have helped you then....
You know what my first thought was when Lemur said his bit?

I wonder if he bids $10000.93

Sometimes I like to wait out an auction and bid the good old fashioned way... Bit like washing up when you have a dishwasher - feels like a treat occasionally...!!! Finger twitching over the submit bid button, panicking and changing your max with 10 seconds to go hoping the signal doesn't drop out....

I occassionally watch auctions end assuming it's practical but rarely bid on them myself

Usually let the snipe service do its work
