oh will i know that sinking feeling well, as the minutes to end of auction count down, and you refresh the page every few seconds in the desperate hope that some other fool is prepared to pay more than you for a worthless piece of tat that looked like such a marvellous find at 3 in the morning after several large gins. There should be a series of alcohol tests to go through before you're allowed to bid.
The "buy it now" things are worse though, there's no hope, you just have to cough up, and with paypal you could easily spend your entire overdraft very quickly without ever having felt like you've spent anything. Until your next bank statement lands on the doormat and you have to eat beans on toast for a month to make up for it.
