You stay up all night waiting for an auction to end so you can snipe at the very last minute, but then 5 min before it ends your computer crashes and you miss the auction!!!! :x :x :x :x :x

JagWarlord,

 

The seller has 0 feedback.  I wouldn't be too upset about missing that auction.

 

Yeah, I would have took my chances on that though.

The whole lot was atleast worth $250

I used to have my DSL connection tank on me at random times when I was trying to watch auctions and bid before close. A couple of times I even had to dial up my wife's AOL in a straight panic and attempt to snipe at slow ass 28.8 connections. I think that was one of many reasons (besides MSN's terribly inefficient and idiotic customer support) that I finally switched to Cox Cable.

By me something different happen in the past. 3 Minutes after the auctions ends eBay crashed and no auction was working anymore. Then 6 Minutes later all was normal, but the auction I want was ended.

 

But now I have all get later by other auctions.
