okay, guys, thanks, if i wanted to make sure that i wouldn't be "charged" then i should have cancelled the snipes . . . that makes sense. and there is probably a FAQ about not being able to cancel within "such and such" prior to the auction ending, right?
i'll know better next time. . . . the cost is minimal anyway, so no biggie . . . thanks for the response. . . .
seems like a good bunch of folks here . . . i'm looking forward to chatting with all of you. . . .
