Now I remember why I like the Buy it Now option.

Ah well. Better luck next time.
Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm in agreement. I've had my heart broken one too many times! I hope you win next round.

I just try to put my max bid at the highest amount i'd be willing to pay for an item. That way, if I get sniped, it went for more than I wanted to pay for it anyway.

Also, if you didn't know, if someone snipes you, and their max is lower than your max, you'll still win the auction.

Better to be a sniper yourself. The way you do it, chances are highly likely someone will crawl up on you and you will pay more for your item if you win than when you would've sniped it yourself. Even if you snipe with the same price you would've bid in the first place...

Agreed. This is a situation in which fighting fire with fire is your best option. Sniping works pretty well, and if you REALLY want something, then I wouldn't hesitate to snipe.

The driver should have been driving a Patriot, not a Cherokee. Would make a lot more sense.

There is a Jeep Patriot, but the script in your link said Jeep Cherokee.

But a "Konami" themed Jeep Patriot would be pretty clever.

^ Yea, but what i am clear is that it saids "Konami" on it in red just like the company :D.

So either he was a hardcore fan or some other company around here happen ot have the exact same logo/txt style as the game company.

Just like that...
