    Default Asleep at the Wheel

    After snagging my birthday present I seem to have lost all ability to buy anything I want.

    I actually had my clock set for this one, as I wanted to drive to town and use my snipe program on my phone (been having internet problems at home)

    I woke up, and it was over. I hope to the razor gods that it was one of you guys that snagged it and not just turned into a clean it up and resell at a profit item.

    Tell me one of YOU guys will be shaving with this next week....

    I wish I could say it was me, but i was a little shy with my last bid. Someone is going to be very happy!

    I've missed them like that too. The thing to do is get with ebay's automatic snipe program. I never have 'cause I like the adrenaline rush of doing the snipe up close and personal. No worries though, they made more than one.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Ebay has a snipe program of its own?

    If you are referring to its automatic bidding feature, what I have found repeatedly, is people who sit and "pick" at your bid until they find your maximum. I have had way better success not bidding at all until the last moment. ANd yea, sitting there with my finger hovering above the bid button is way more fun! =P

    Not sure, thought they did ...... if they don't there are others apps that do. I am a 3 to 4 seconds before the end bidder. Worth the rush win or lose, and I'm usually happier if I lose.

    I do have a snipe app, but it only works if you have internet. Mine has been cutting out the last few days due to the crappy weather. hence why I was going to drive to town to make sure I had connectivity.

    I think I should give up on the wide DD search, and just practice my grinding skills more so I can make my own. I just need to know how thick the blades on the big ducks are and without a specimen in hand to mic up... Unless you got one handy Jimmy? (I bet you do!)

    You lose ...... Never had a 7/8 duck in my long life. I've got a 6/8 special that reads 1.077 at the spine, if I'm reading it right .....
