Waiting for an auction to end...

in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
It's almost 11:00 and I'm bored out of my mind waiting for an auction to end. I just want to go to bed, especially since I have to get up at 5:30 tomorrow. Honestly though in the last 3 years I've only seen this card come up once in this grade, and I got trumped hard that time. I don't care, this time it's mine!

What's everyone else doing?

    Hopefully it's not the same one I'm bidding on!

    Did you get it? I just lost out on the card I was bidding on, it went for about 20 bucks over VCP.

    Throw down your MAX bid and I'm sure you'll win it. When I find a card I must have, I put in a for sure winning bid.

    This could be why I've also paid WAYYYYY above VCP for cards image

    Thanks guys. Heading off to bed now. I was hoping to pay around $175-$180 but bid quite a bit more than that just to be on the safe side.

    That's exactly why I went silent for the last few minutes of the auction last night. I've done exactly that more times than I can count!

    Just to let you know....

    My wife often tells me "You're weird" when it comes to cards, etc...

    I was watching the auction last night and she sees me and asks what I'm doing. Who is that. Why is it so expensive. Are you bidding on that!?!?! I explain that I wasn't bidding and then explained the situation...

    "So, you are watching an auction that someone else is bidding on, just to see if he wins?"

    "Yes."

    "You're weird."

    Your wife's name wouldn't be Marcie would it?
