A Near Thing

I have learned an important lesson about bidding on Gunbroker.

Don't do everything but confirm the bid when the cats are in a full-on scamper.

One of them will run across the mouse just as you notice that the suspiciously cheap Garand was built on a CAI reciever and hit the button.

Don't open the bid window unless you are SURE you wanna bid!

Thankfully, someone else wanted it more than Bear, because Bear did not have the $805 bucks I'd entered.

I don't really have it either.  Which is why I was dithering about bidding, stupid as it was to even think about.
