Do not Ebay when sleepy

[Oddjob0226]

If you're in a car and falling asleep, you get a motel room or you pull over to nap. Do the same thing when you are checking out stuff on Ebay.

The Bid button and the Buy Now button on Ebay are both grey and right next to each other. The "Confim Bid" and Confirm Buy" page look exactly the same. I bid on a postal 'first day of issue' film-related item for $5. I just BOUGHT that item for $89. I'm going to bed.

Meh. 89 bucks is ok. I know a guy who spent $1200 on a laptop that he didn't need.

Go Ebay, Go!!

Cheers.😀

Are all purchases final on Ebay? That sucks, Oddjob! What's the item you bought by mistake?

Hehehehe that's pretty funny, Mike. Perhaps you can try to re-sell it on Ebay, for a profit?

It's a cool item - it's a First Day of Issue commemorative postmarked envelope with the Buster Keaton 'stars of the silent screen' stamp which was created/designed by the recently-deceased-at-99-years Al Hirschfiled (he's the guy who does all the famous drawings of all the Broadway stars).

It's postmarked "First Day of issue" w/a special Buster Keaton envelope. It's also signed by Hirshcfiled. I'm a fan of both Keaton & Hirshcfiled, and this is a rather unique item.

But it ain't $90 worth of uniqueness to me.

I'm taking bids....

I haven't been to eBay in awhile. Thought the buy now button was red. :-/

One dollar OK? 😀
