LOL! :rofl:

If only I could find money as well as I find stuff. Wonder if I could get paid to be a "finder"? Might have to look into that.

Imagine this one showing up like 5 minutes after I bought something else !
I couldnt persuade myself putting in an offer for this as well, thats why I posted it and send some e-mails to other people
'Someone' got this for a great price , I am glad for the buyer !

Yeah me too, but through gritted teeth. Missed out on something yesterday that had no right going higher than my top bid and you know what it's like - when you have mentally committed to spending money it starts burning a hole in your wallet!

Looking at the semi-profile pics; that dial and ring may be better than that first pic indicates. Glad the buyer got it, too!

we´ll see how this turns out, had promised myself not to buy any non-grail watches this weekend, so did not even use the BIN but sent the seller an offer which he immediately accepted :oops:

Sorry Roff, but this would probably not really have improved you mood after coming in second with that other watch ?
Fingers crossed another one pops up soon !
