Wow, that sucks, Brent. I'm not surprised though.
@mjwatts: Was there a Buy it Now on the auction from the beginning or did you send the seller one of those "I'll give you $$$ right now if you end the auction"?
Yeah. There was no buy it now at the beginning, I was the first bidder. If there was a buy it now for $940, then I would have bought it . I was suprised the seller fell for the "end it now" message, I didn't even think of trying that. 99% of the time it will go for more if you let the auction play out, and I just figured most sellers knew that.
The only one who really lost out here was the seller, they would have gotten a couple hundred more had they let the auction go. No hard feelings though.
I was second highest bidder on that other Gray MM NFR that sold last night, so obviously I was willing to pay just shy of the $1204 or whatever it went for. Hopefully that high price will bring some more out of hiding.
I knew I was competing with another NAer! Having said that, *thank you* for not bidding higher. My max bid was considerably higher than what I ended up paying and I'm glad to have something left over, haha.
