    Were you watching your clock at home or the on on the auction? GB is set up on EST and say you lived in CA the auction would end three hours earlier on your home clock than here in the East Coast.

    What is the link to the auction item? It would be included it your bid confirmation.

    Went to items I bid on, items I won, and my watchlist.Does not appear on any of these.. I know bid was accepted but foolishly deleted it from my inbox so wife wouldn't find it.

    When the swelling goes down some, you will be able to see again, then you will find it.

    I would like to laugh at you and call you whipped. But I also delete any GB E-mails involving purchases, for the very same reason.

    If you deleted it from your inbox it will still be in your deleted email file.

    Go to "My Gunbroker" and click on the "Ended" option next to "Items I'm watching". Your auction should be in there.

    if you hadn't reached the reserve the guy might have sold it in his store or at a gunshow or to his neighbor...
    Not a legal auction until it reaches reserve.

    You kidding?? Wife knows to look in trash files, so I delete them too.
    Gun finally surfaced. Seems I fell into a time warp. Auction apparantly just ended when I started to look around. Feel kinda foolish. (did win auction) sorry for all the confusion..
