Should I, or shouldn't I???
Watching an item on ebay. Two days left in the auction. No bids. Have the ability to buy it now for $30 more than opening bid.
Want item for sure.
What to do???
Do I wait, or run the risk of someone else snatching it up with BIN??

I say BIN... IMO, when the price is that high for an item, $30 is just a drop in the bucket... how much is shipping?

If it's something you REALLY want and you're going to miss out on it entirely (or end up spending $300 more) if you don't get it now, then just buy it - Skip a pedicure or something to make up for the extra $$$ if you're feeling guilty !!

If you don't want someone to do the BIN, just put a low bid in.
Does it have a view ticker? How many views has it gotten?

Re: Should I, or shouldn't I???
I got it... it's a handbag that I really don't need... but I knew I would just become obsessed with it.
The trick for me is that I needed to also move $$ around since I don't usually keep money in my pal pay account, nor the checking account it's linked to for security purposes... the stress!!!

I couldn't help myself..
It had 60 views, and while it was expensive-- there could have been someone out there just like me who really wanted it.

I would have done the BIN too. $30 isn't much of a difference. .
ETA: Are we gonna' get to see pics of your newest acquisition!?!

It's the Kooba Paige in Bourbon... same bag that I was thinking about buying from another LIW poster, but I didn't pull the trigger. I looked to see if anyone had it on ebay, and there it was..

I was in the same boat as you. If I bought that bag DH would have divorced me.
So happy you got one, it's beautiful!

Re: Should I, or shouldn't I???
GREAT purchase! I have that bag. I got it from Beth. It's a really great bag. The ONLY problem I have is that it is heavy on it's own and when it's full it is REAL heavy.

Well, I have a couple of other Koobas so I am used to their weight... what's a little suffering for fashion??
