Kick Me

Okay guys. I just had a major brain fart. Auction on ebay for
a Galco Miami Classic for large frame auto, with dbl. mag. pouch.
Used of course, but not much info in the description. Noticed what
appears to be a sewing repair on the thumbsnap of the holster.
No problem, all I need is the harness. Watched it, bid was
30.99 30 minutes before end of auction. Waited till 12 seconds
before end to snipe it. Got a screen that said user ID or password
invalid.
I FORGOT TO ENTER MY PASSWORD!!!!!
It went for 30.99. Needless to say I am very upset at myself right
now. You may proceed to kick.

Don't send flowers when I die. Send money now, I can buy more ammo.

    I'm thinking you most likely are kicking yourself twice as hard as I would!

    You have my sympathy, it's always the little details isn't it?

    No need to kick, that is one mistake you will not make again, that is all that counts.

    If your gonna snipe at least do it the right way.
    First set up one window of your favorite browser with your password entered and price set and one button left to hit before your bid is entered. In the other window have the auction showing and hit refresh till the "magic time". With dial ups you may want to give yourself 30 seconds. With DSL and cable you can run it closer. Remenber if two people bid the same amount the earlier bid wins. Also think about the other bidder just bidding the least amount that is required, and that if you go just a few cents over that you have outsmarted your fellow bidder.

    bama55;

    I guess your'e aware these (Galco Miami Classic) go for $159.
    I prefer the Galco SS-2.
    You might want to checkout the * Harness from Galco also(they bought out * some time ago).

    Alpine, that is what I was doing, but I forgot the PW on the bid
    page.
    Oh well, live and learn. Laugh about it now.
    Thanks JD.
