The one that got away

How about a thread for auctions that got away from us ?



I count 4 new standards, a valet, an mmoc, an old type, and an unknown. If one of you here won this lot I'd love to take one of those new standards off your hands. What got away from you today ?

 

Don't look at it like you lost the auction, just look at it like they saved you a $72. All of them probably have cracks in the handles. Lucky for you that you missed out on that one.

 

I think you are just trying to make me feel better LOL. One had a crack for sure. but it went well above my threshold

 

Of course someone would have invented the wheel already

 

Wouldn' t it be funny if horse-race callers sounded like auctioneers? Just pondering, here.

 

I was bidding on that and went well above what I could afford. Lol but the one that got away for me was a V2 adjustable black beauty. I was being cheap and while I was making an offer it got sold. I'm so stupid !!

 

I have too many 'that got away'.

 

Most of the ones that got away were a relief.

 

Like this one. I was good at $75 but really I don't need it and was OK that I missed.

 

Both Sold for 50 poumds. I.could have had them. Someone stole this collection.
