Hmmmm As Party will testify from my mini rages - I dont take loosing auctions well at all...I get loud and I get angry and then sometimes I ll cry a little too...after that I go on ebay bidding mania and end up winning things I really dont need *looks at £50 spent on another bundle of combs*Is it childish...yup...but honestly I take it personally! lol

I don't know, I haven't bought a pony on eBay all year. Yay me.
It hits me pretty hard when I lose something I wanted. I remember putting the highest, absolutely break me now bid in once for a toy I really wanted... only to be outbid. It was heartbreaking.. I was also quite angry.. and remembered putting in some final 'i know it's not going to be me' bids just to make them pay more for it..
I did this once and ended up paying for it... literally. I was bidding on a bunch of MOCs from the same seller and kept getting outbid by the same buyer. I knew (or thought I knew) what they were willing to go up to so I kept upping the price by a few dollars thinking for sure I wouldn't surpass their max bid. On one particular pony I wound up being the highest bidder with nearly a half hour to spare. I thought surely they'd outbid me by the end of the auction. Turns out, I won, and for a LOT more than I was actually willing to pay. Well, I mean, I did pay (it wasn't the seller's fault I was stupid) but you better believe I never did THAT again, lol. So much for trying to teach someone a lesson!
What I really hate is when I miss an item on the Arena that I really wanted by someone else sending in the PM like 5 minutes before me
