Does anyone else get this way?

Without fail everytime I bid on anything the butterflies start flying, the pulse gets going (fast). The fingers start shaking and dont stop till a few minutes after the auction ends. I just won something and even as I type this I am still feeling the effects.

I wonder if there are stats for heart attacks while bidding on Ebay ? Seriuosly.

Mike, do you see what you are missing out on? image

    Whats wrong with you man! image

    I know its no Emmitt Smith but I really needed it. I even bid on a "private" auction to get it.
  • Don't get me wrong Matt im really happy for you it's just that cars were never my thing growing up

    It was all about playing the sports and chasing the skirts image

    I get the same way. An hour before any big auction is about to end I usually pop 2 xanax..no joke.

    Looking for Jonny Gomes cards, especially Triple Threads and printing plates. Will consider all cards, though. Got something? Contact me at c_u_l_1@yahoo.com

    Matt

    I wrote a similar thread a few days ago where I asked about a "sinking, crappy" feeling after bidding on something. Like, perhaps, you should've passed on the item or something like that.

    When I was overbuying, I immediately felt a kind of regret - like - how many new this or that does one person need?

    So, in many respects, Matt - I promise you are in good company.

    PS: maybe CPR should be a CU requirement? image
