If you really bid the maximum you were willing to pay then you should not care that someone outbid you. That item was just too rich for you and you should happily let it go by. If you did not bid the maximum you were willing to pay and therefore lost the auction you should have your head examined. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
