So today I won a big online SF toy auction. It's for a red hotel building that's boxed, complete, with figures, PLUS extras too! Hehe!
I promised myself not to join any auction anymore because I find them too much trouble for me. I don't have much time to track its progress and trying to outbid each time even with auto bids, and it's kinda annoying (even if exciting) doing so. I didn't buy the same on regular sale as they don't come with extras and usually cost more than auctions for the same buildings I've come across just prior.
This time I just put my maximum bid, or the highest price I'm willing to pay for the whole set and, whaddayaknow... I won it even after a sneaky bidder tried to bid at the last minute by about $50 dollars more than my bid before I won. Sorry dude, my highest bid is just too high, knowing the demand for this listing. Didn't want to waste time manually outbidding. I let the system do the automatic bids for me. Lol!
What's even yummier is that the auction site is currently running a 10% off promo on toys too. Lol! So between my highest bid and how much I won it for, I'd say the difference was $95. Awesome!
