I've had that happen once or twice. But not since I got DSL. I doubt very
much if I'd ever change my bidding habits. In the instance(s) where I don't
get the item...I can rest assured that it will show up on another day...and
it will probably go for less...because only two people in the world wanted
the darned thing...and the other guy's already got one now! ;-)

Regards,

Jay
