<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Andrew5, post: 2432856, member: 74569&quot;]Once upon a time I bid and won a &quot;bomb blast blanket.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; Yes - it&#039;s exactly what you think it is. Used by the military and police. I was doing a live auction on my phone which ended up being all kinds of stupid.&nbsp; The auction house was selling coins, guns, Etc.&nbsp; My winning bid? $2,000.&nbsp; My biggest fear was the damn thing coming to the house and my wife seeing it. I mean we&#039;ve all bought coins that we&#039;ve hidden from the wife knowing she would just give us hell for another numismatic purchase (anyone who says they haven&#039;t experienced this is single or a liar). Anyway, knowing that I had no need for said Bomb Blast Blanket and I really hate sleeping on the couch I called the auction house and explained the situation. I told her I would be happy to buy the item and donate it to the local police force. The woman said &quot;oh honey, no worries.&nbsp; I can put that back up on the next auction and get another grand for it.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; And with that she cancelled the purchase.&nbsp; So my advice is to just call them. Be honest. Maybe you&#039;ll get stuck with it and maybe you won&#039;t.&nbsp; And if you meet a woman out of Louisiana selling bomb blast blankets say hello from me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
