...decided you're going to win an ebay auction, setting up a crazy-high snipe on it, and getting blown out of the water on the final hammer price.

    Although disappointing thankfully there's always something else lurking around the corner...

    That happens from time to time.

    What is worse (but not really because you end up with the coin) is winning the coin at your nuclear bid.

    More often than not I win way below the nuke bid.

    Sometimes it is, and sometimes it isn't. Been on both sides of that one!

    how about deciding to buy an item getting the moon bid blown out, then getting into a bidding war and winning. Then you feel buyer's remorse.
