C'est la vie, as they say. Look, if $80 was your limit, then $80 was your limit. If you were actually willing to spend 85 bucks, then maybe your max bid should have been 85 bucks. That way if the dude stopped at $84, it would have been yours. Capisce?

In reality, sniping isn't a valid strategy. Bids on eBay are processed in fractions of seconds. If you and a dozen other people are all sniping each other, it's a total crap shoot who'll win the bid in the last millisecond. You might as well roll dice.

But hey, I feel bad the bidding ended when you were asleep. Effectively you had ZERO chance of winning. As they say, you gotta be in it to win it. Right ?

I remember getting into a price war with some bidiot over a mint condition Elite Rayven. This motherf person drove up the price 2 dollars at a time for 6 straight days. When the price got up to $90 I decided to make my max bid $120. He bid it all the way to $98 before giving up. Jerk !!!

Bottom line, that Rayven is mine now.
