i bid 6k at in the last 2 sec. (close one.) and it expired with me as the winner.
Then I would assume that it's a new glitch, not a scam. If the auction had already expired, there is no way the seller could have cancelled.

I hate stupid people... stare
I guess i'd better leave.


You haven't done anything I've seen to warrant such a title. It's a large portion of people in the market that make me want to smash my head several times in to a thick, sturdy wall... stare
I have a brick. ::hands to you:: have fun with it.


Nah, bricks are more useful for hurting that person at fault. Nice spray effect with each hit 3nodding

stressed That doesn't change the fact that it's impossible for a seller to cancel a sale after it's expired. It's a glitch.

Recently, some guy on the marketplace spent atleast 200k for three 04' letter that contain omfg which he saw as a 03'. I don't know the specifics, and if you know him, no offense.. but he made a thread on how fed up he was and how frustrated he was that he got scammed when he was alittle dull in the first place. I mean, you have to be a bit blind with greed to bid on the wrong letter because you see its only got 5 mins left, a buy price of 500k and you bidding half that. no?

Edit: my point is.. the selfish people selling the letters are idiots; but so are the ones buying them when its obvious that it the wrong price for an 04 letter.

Sounds like the guy. I mean, how do you miss that? I always check what a letter contains before bidding. It's not a scam if the buyer is at fault...

Me too, even on the exchange; i always check what i am buying before i post.. most of the time. This guy even had people offering him items to comfort him for his loss. Though, i think the only thing lost was his pride. And Exactly, he should have sucked it up and gone on; it was his fault for bidding in the first place. Nonetheless, it would be nice if sellers didn't put prices so high in the first place.
Sometimes people in the marketplace really overprice things. Do they think people will actually pay that much?

I guess they hope some rich guy will come along and buy it. Or they could just have made a mistake (thinking an '04 letter was an '03 in the Price Guides). I accidentally put up store items for more than their worth sometimes, but I fix them.

It annoys me when I'm looking for gloves and the lowest price is over the store price. [See Morgana's, Felicia's Gloves]
