    Just look at it this way, you still have money for the next one!! Hang in there, or do what I do, never shop Ebay and just have one made! Tc

    Yea aaron1234, like ten minutes after 7 p m I was bidding on a vintage razor hone nothing really special but I had high bid and last like 3 seconds got out bid by .50 cents and hit the higher bid button and was too late, happened Saturday night on a W&B special I was bidding on. I am really new to ebay, like the last 3 weeks and I think I have a few things to learn

    I would love to have a custom razor tcrideshd! One of these days I will, I have two blanks cut from tool steel and was hoping to make it to Howards shop for the meet up but had to work they still need ground and heat treated and such. Just have not had any time this summer to finish them, maybe this winter. I really want a blade from Bruno he makes beautiful razors.

    In that case welcome to eBay. It happens to me all the time. Eventually I got tired of it and started doing it myself. As far as I know ebay has tried to eliminate this by having you place your max bid and eBay bids for you up to that point but as you can tell it doesn't really work that well. As the old saying go's if you can't beat them join them. Eventually you'll get something just keep trying!

    That is my plan from here on out aaron1234. It is not really that big of a deal just irks ya a bit just needed to complain a bit with peoples who will feel my pain. Does suck I had watched this item for like 3 days and not one bid or other person watching it then last second, BAM outbid. That shall be me from here on out.

    Be careful what you pray for, you might get it. I've been in your shoes and learned how to snipe auctions too well. When you get to the point where you are glad you lost, then you know it is time to quit looking. Only thing that worked for me to break the habit, but you've probably got a ways to go before you know what I'm talking about.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    This is exactly where I stopped browsing ebay. Except for that vintage coti, had to get that one... Maybe there's a nice #14 on there...
