Nibbled to death by piranhas....

That's what auction bidding is like to me. Being fucking nibbled to death by piranhas.  The stupid little games of waiting till the last seconds, only to have to watch that fucking countdown for ANOTHER 5 minutes....

Whew... now I feel better.... Thanks for listening

You have no idea.  On Tuesdays, our beloved nanny has class so I知 in charge.  As we speak, I知 watching my daughter do ballet, my son is on his iPad (so far quiet), I知 pushing my other daughter on her stroller while trying to bid and dealing with idiots who have zero concept of value and keep overbidding each other.  At least it seems the market is doing well, but it is a challenge.

I'm probably one of the idiots paying too much, but I like what I like lol

I have a vision of Mr. Mom bidding auctions while pushing a stroller. I see a wig.... and heels....

Hey Holiday!

I was lucky recently and the nibblers stayed away. I hope to have a surprise to show in a month or so when Mario works his magic.  Okie

Holiday,
As I'm sure you are aware, it's even worse on YJ - at least on the US auction sites the minimum bid increases as the bids get higher.
I've bid on Japanese auctions, and watch people chip away $10 at time even though the bid is over ･700,000
It's just silly

Happened so few times to me, but yes.  A pain in the ass.  Perhaps the concept of sniping on emp is sort of lost on them...

Let me just say, Theirry gives me all kinds of fucking grief about overspending, and then he pays over $400 for that B1 - I am so happy to be able to call him AN OVERSPENDING IDIOT JUST LIKE ME! Lol. 

I did own overspending, though.... lol

That annoyed me about the bidding is the people waiting till the last seconds. Just fucking bid!  Don't be a bidding douche.  Don't be that person....

Well, I NEEDED IT for my Spielberg collection.  There was no way around it.  I would have spent much more, so in retrospect, I got a bargain hahaha.  The problem with me, I guess, is that I have way too many collections.  50 something at the last count.

OK... Back to CNN and the fuck up.
