I spotted a record on eBay the other day that had been listed in the wrong section, set my snipe and forgot about it. The snipe failed and when I had a look at it I found that the seller had ended the listing early.

Now I know this happens a lot but have a look at the question/answer at the bottom of [this listing] and see if you believe it. :no:

The seller did, I contacted him and he said he'd got $50 for it ..... which was lower than my snipe.

Aaah well ... some you win etc.

That's nothing.....

How about 'I'm dying from cancer and it would mean so much if I could hold this record (that features my long dead brother singing) one more time before I die'.....

Or..."this was my group (or I played bass on this record)....my only copy was lost when my house and all my possesions burned down in a forest fire and I would really like to replace it so I can have one of my memories back"

Or..."I want to buy this for my father who was in the group and surprize him for Christmas, as he has not seen the record in 40 years....I've been unemployed and don't have the money to buy him a nice present"

Stop It Please!! I'm Crying In My Cornflakes Just Take It Please!! No No I Insist :D

LOL... to be honest... it was not my best but it was not only a lie! Regards Chris LOL and I'm really happy that I've found a second copy. (First one was given to my friend!)

I can't believe people would stoop so low as to try and get sellers to end early........

The Lord moves in mysterious ways.
