« on: March 28, 2015, 05:22:08 PM »

I clicked that buy it now option as fast as I could BUT MY DARNED COMPUTER WOULDN'T LOAD! My paypal wasn't logging in! After about 20 seconds, when my checkout FINALLY loads...

She'd already been sold.

I know it sounds silly, but I feel like crying. :sad:

I'm so sorry!  I know how much it can hurt to be so close to a pony to only to have it be snatched by someone else.  It has made me want to cry too.

I'm sorry that you missed her, by such a close margin especially!  It is totally reasonable to feel disappointed! Goodness knows I would!

So sorry :hug: I hope to never experience missing an amazing BIN by such a close margin, just hearing about it is so disappointing. :( I'd rather be happy for the lucky duck who got it than upset for myself, but that's easier said than done. :P

The seller must not realize what a valuable gem Mimic is to so many collectors.

Do not feel bad *hug*

That is usually why I actively dislike these kind of threads. What is one person's wonderful discovery is someone elses upset.

As pony collectors we just have to accept that we cant win everything and instead of bemoaning our losses we should be pleased for the collector who managed to snag the bargain or awesome win!
