      Idiocy FTL. Dont even bother with excuses right now, what you did was stupid whether it was compulsive or not. /end rant. Um, yes, because I know exactly how it is to be the winner of auctions of things I NEED, when some other idiot bid the hell out of it under me. Kthx.

            Better start doing some serious work around the house. And better hope daddy doesn't either find out or he actually wants the car.....which it doesn't sound like.

              everyone, get off the ban stick band wagon. he was foolish to punch in bids, he knows, he admits it. if he refuses to purchase, he will get a negative FB, maybe a loss of account. whoop-dee-do. i wouldnt have cared that he was my deadbeat bidder, but at least he agrees to pay the fees. its a nice looking car, might be worth it, price seems about right!

                    I have been outbid on about 10 C43 cd players...makes me wonder if dis foo is the reason!

                    Nah, I know better. I bid $75, most sell for $250.

                    Either way, man...don't do it again!

                      yes, please don't ban me. I've never felt more ashamed. Just felt compelled to post about it as if to admit i had a problem. Definitely learned something from this.

                          Would you mind sharing exactly what you DID learn? Not being condescending, just curious.

                          BTW, your behaviour on Ebay, while it pisses me off, won't get you banned from here.

                            Crazy shit man. Even though what the OP did is screwed. I dont put too much stock in Ebay feedback. I've gotten neg feedback from giving neg feedback. Most of it is a scam.

                            As far as a ban , this guy is too pitifull and apologetic. And the latter is what is lacking from bannable people, IMO.
