Did you ever regret you bid on something before the auction?

Sometimes I think my reasoning goes to another planet and I've mistakenly (in retrospect) bid on coins I really shouldn't have. Consider it an expensive learning experience how well we can fool ourselves into thinking ...

Ever happen to you?

    No. I almost always have someone I trust view lots & get back to me before I bid on anything.

    All you can do is hope that someone outbids you.
