Dear bid sniper,

THANK YOU for sniping me!

I don't know what I was doing, bidding on that coin. What was I thinking? It doesn't fit into what I collect ... and even if I DID want it, I've seen better since! That was NOT the coin you (well, I) wanna take home to mom. So I'm so glad to see that now I don't have to explain to the wife, "what happened?!"
...
"Hello. My name is mt_msla. I sometimes make late-night bad decisions on coins."
"Hello mt_msla."
"But I'm learning!"

Insert witicism here. [ xxx ]

    Snipping is part of the game. Glad you learned from it.

    Yeah...I got bailed last night too.

    I've been sniped before. Yes, sometimes it could be a relief.

    I for sure agree with the "what was I thinking?" crowd.

    Yes! Thank you. Because of you I have nothing to fess up to on the "how many coins did you buy this week" thread.

    Happened to me twice recently, and both times I was hoping someone else would win at the last second. The relief is almost (but not quite) better than winning something I really want!

    @mt_msla: While reading your post I just missed an opportunity to snipe a coin that I had been watching. You deserve to be the successful bidder.

    too fast with my fingers and slow with the thoughts....
    Too often I was relieved for being sniped :|
