    Look at the bright side. Now you have at least $52 that you can spend on Halloween candy that is marked down.

    Some times you win, some times you lose. It's frustrating when you don't win, for sure!

    My wife went to Wal-Mart yesterday to buy candy for our church's "Trunk or Treat" program. "Trunk or Treat" is a program that many church's provide to keep our children off the street. Anyway, when she got to the candy aisle, it was almost vacant.
    As for us, we live in the backwoods and it's too far to go to get a Snicker bar. When we lived in town, we used to get a plastic pumpkin and put the candy in it for "self-help". The candy was gone within an hour. So then we turned off all the lights in the house. I was glad there are programs for children on Halloween. We saw "children" over 14 going house to house.

    I understand your frustration. Bids like this happen all the time to me. $27 for a common date and likely permanently damaged Peace dollar + the buyers fee and shipping?! You can keep it! What I'd really like to know is where are these people when I'm selling?

    I've been fund ng it hard to find any morgan or peace dollars not going above $30 if you include shipping. I always check the sold items list & confused how some items sold only 1 bid & 0.01.

    If you bid the highest your were willing to pay, and someone out bid that, then I'd say, "Good for you to stick to your price and not get auction fever."

    Yea most peace dollars are garbage, this one looked promising for the price. I have a budget. The Morgans though....sooooooooooooo many!!!

    Any time you see a random cent number like that you can essentially assume it was an under bidder that triggered it. No one nails their bid by the cent

    Never bid more than your willing to pay on Ebay. Because they can roll you bad. I never had to contest thankfully. I wonder if ebay would let you slide if you bid a ridiculous amount to win and you beat the sellers bid. And don't tell me the sellers aunts uncles and wives are not bidding even money on there own stuff.
