But I was just being silly anyway and I wanted to see if the list was working. I do see a fair amount of you at MB though! - --Leslie __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

You call it "sniping". I call it "winning". The only time it matters who has the highest bid is at the very end. I rarely bid if I am not able to "babysit" an auction. (be on the PC at the very end) That's what I call it anywho. And yes, I have been "outsniped", but all's fair in.....oh yeah, someone already covered that!
