Ebay broke my heart.

 
Well, I don’t blame eBay, so much as some greedy nameless bidders who made me realise I am still an eBay newbie.

 
But I am learning QUICKLY !

 
This is it…..

how lovely is this table. I know, wonderful right?

Just the right amount of things done to it, and not done to it. The peeling paint, the stipped back top.

I had the place picked out for it in the store. I could picture the stylish merchandising I could do on top of it.

 
I placed a bid last week, just to get my hand in the game. Then I set my phone alarm for 15 minutes before the end of bidding last night. My limit…..$450.

 
At 8.10pm last night, mine was the highest bid at $320, so I thought, maybe I’ll get a bargain here…..bidding would end at 8.15pm.

 
At 8.13pm I was out bid at $400, so I bid again to my limit. AND THEN IT HAPPENED.

 
In the last 50 seconds, bidding went from $450 to $950 and I watched while two bidders took that table our of my hands and up to $1,195.

 
It was amazing and heart breaking all at the same time.

 
Well…I have a bid on another table. Not nearly as wonderful. But, its probably best to get back on the horse.

 
I am off to watch a video on Youtube about how to bid on eBay.

 

See you in the store.
