Am I the only one, or does anyone else suffer from self inflicted eBay regrets? Not sure if it's down to tiredness, or the "affluence" that comes with alcofrol consumption, but sometimes I think "why the feck did I bid that much??" And then, "can someone outbid me PLEASE" or "I hope the reserve is higher than my max bid!!"

Been there, done that. Best one was in on this hideous yellow and pink cycling jersey. Luckily was outbid!

My mate bid quite a lot of money on an old London Taxi whilst under the influence and unfortunately no one out bid him...................needless to say his wife was not impressed.
I'm sure your bid is not quite as bad as that FMOA5a?.................it's not all bad. ;-)

Can't you withdraw your bid?
Or contact the seller and request they remove your bid? That has happened to me before when I was selling an item.
If the worst happens and you can't do that and win. Say you don't want the item. The seller can't give you -ve feedback (which as a ebay seller i think it utter BS btw).

I "know" I'm not going to win it, &/ or it will not reach it's reserve, but you know how a watched kettle never boils! Well I've got 11 hours to wait until I know my fate!
Can't get link from phone, but it's a Cielo Rosso Single Speed. Bit blingy really, but the frame is interesting!
