Fatman, I was thinking about the auction that you won. You said you bid with 9 secs left only to be beat by my max bid.
That is interesting because there were only 6 seconds left when I entered my max. Maybe there is something to the
time difference after all.
It is tail end tuesday so I better go find some tail.
Best John
Morning John ( late evening here)
The 9 seconds on my side is my cue to hit enter on the bid , as I am in a rural area , relying on an old fashioned ADSL set up ... for local auctions that gives me a wee margin of buffer in case the ether glitches on me so my 9 second bid probably hit the auction platform about 0.000 poofteenths of a second before yours ... and hence .. you got top bid ... but my cat like reflexes ( lol ) enabled me to get in an uber quick panic bid with gawd knows how many poofteenths of a second before the auction end ... so you won , and then right on hammer fall my top up bid snuck in thru the ether on the last electron bus available !
I was for sure thinking "no way" it would get thru ... It has not worked before for me in the past , but it sneaked in by a sparrows fart
It was a Battle Royale and you were a formidable foe!
Happy Tail hunting !
