A boy friend of friend (please note the space between boy and friend...very significant
) asked me to bid on some Oakley Sunglasses for him. His max bid was originally $150, then he said get them at all costs (men!!) and then I finally talked him into spending no more than $160. As per my normal these days I proxy bid to see if we were in the ballpark (Dont bother Chatter - I KNOW what you think of this behavior 
) and knocked the other bloke off the podium at $142.50. Lovely!! Auction ended at around midnite last nite and I wasnt staying up, so I set my snipe to $163.56 (thereabouts) and went to bed. This morning I get up and found I won the sunnies for my bid of $142.50. Too
Pretty-Boy would be happy. I know I have waffled but I am getting there.....
This morning (well midnite) I get an email from the seller saying that she only wanted $74 for the sunnies and had that BIN price (gone when we found them) and thats all she is charging me
Her explanation was "I am not a greedy person and its the festive season" I nearly fell off my seat. I paid $80 all up, to cover extra ebay fees and express post.
