Joined: February 2005 Posts: 1132 Location: Parrish, FL | A few weeks ago there was a pristine looking 95 Collectors that ended below reserve at over $900. It was relisted on the 24th with no reserve, ending tonight. It had run up to over $800 this afternoon. I was tracking it out of curiosity and checked it 20 min before it ended. All the bids had been cancelled and a new bid at $375 from a 0 feedback bidder remained. I waited until about 2 minutes before the end and tried to snipe on in. My bid took but was immediately cancelled and I was blocked from bidding again. Strange. Hope the seller got what he needed. It was a very nice piece. | ||

Never saw a party end so quickly. Yep...good times... | ||

Joined: March 2005 Posts: 12750 Location: Boise, Idaho | One of my summer jobs while in law school was to work for a small town prosecutor. I was supposed to try a case where they arrested a young man for drunk driving. Problem for me was no one saw him driving because he was stopped in the middle of an intersection. They also didn't have a breathalizer and he was smart enough to lock himself in the police station bathroom and drain himself dry so they couldn't get a urinalysis. The cop thought he had to be drunk to stop in the intersection, but the mayor's daughter showed up at trial to testify that she was giving him a BJ and he decided it wasn't safe to drive any more. The cop was mad at me for accepting a plea for stopping in the intersection. | ||
