Missed out on a beaver brown C90

GRRR. Just got outbid on a 1972 brown C90 on ebay by £5 :cry: . It was fairly local to me too at Boston. I hope no-one on here's bought it cos if I see it out and about on the Matlock weekend I'm going home! ;)

Ebay is cruel like that :evil: Some folks use 'snipe', a sneaky way of bidding with 1/4 of a second remaining :shock: , I hate those things! Often wondered what happens when it's snipe against snipe? :?

Sorry Pjam, my last ebay name was sim0 hayha, Google Simo Hayha, and you'll see why.
I use Bidnip with a 3 second margin. Rarely fails. Thats if I haven't managed to buy it outside of the bay before. :twisted: :twisted:
A CG 125 went off earlier, I emailed the guy for a deal, £250 in mind, it went off at £215, but I was at su's daughter and couldn't get the bid on with the phone :evil: :evil: :evil: So I missed it. And he missed out too.
Alls fair in love and war, and gathering cubs off ebay! 8-) 8-) 8-)
