I'm really pumped up! I won an auction the exact time that the auction ended!! Not 5 seconds before, not 2 seconds before, but the EXACT TIME!!!!! Wow! I was afraid that I was going to lose out on it, because I made a mistake on my password and had to redo it. AND this is with a dial-up connection, not cable or DSL.
(This sure feels good since I helped my sister move all day, and I'm DEAD tired and still have to go to work tonight.....)

Yes! Congratulations. My personal best was with 2 seconds left, and I was mighty proud of that one.

Congratulations, Lurky! About four years ago, I used WebTV. My daughter asked me to watch an item for her. I sniped it with just one second to go, and won it for just one penny over the high bidder. I know, I probably got lucky; but did I ever feel pleased with myself! Got a computer with broadband now, but havn't done as well at sniping. However, listing auctions doesn't take me all day now. I did manage to sell with WebTV for three years.
