I thought it would go without saying that I would not have bid had I not

high on my want list. Now, I would just take note of it, and place the
highest bid I was willing to pay within a minute or so of the closing time
(sniping.)
BTW, I think any experienced bidder will snipe,
and I tell everyone I know
that wants to buy on ebay to snipe. I still remember driving up the price on
a Sol-20 by checking and bidding every day against someone else who wanted
it (and got it!)
And that gave you great satisfaction, I take it?
