Forgetting an auction end time =sucktastic
I had a sweet Matt Weiters card lined up for an incredible deal, but then I forgot about it. Screw you, Skyrim. Screw you.

I hate when that happens. Or when my little girl calls me in the last minute of bidding and I miss out by $1.

Thank the Maker for sniping software/sites. No need to memorize end times or sit by the computer and wait for it to end....stopped doing that years ago.

Happened to me last week. Mother in law was here wanted to go home but I wanted to get work done on the car before dark. So rushed out to do that and forgot about a red refractor auto #/10. Hope another one comes up again someday.

All I do is add it to my watch list. Then I get an email notification when the auction is ending.
