I'm a moron. I bid up to $33 for a drukqs promo poster when i could have gotten the same one for $7. Now i'm gonna end up paying for both.
I don't suppose there's any way to retract a bid...
I hate being broke. I won't get paid for 2 weeks either. :-(

i could put in a false bid above yours, if it would help while they're busy tracking me down, you could leave the country
sound good?

yeah that may end up costing a little over 33 bucks, but it would be way more fun

when you buy from ebay you are technically entering a legal contract.....so that means you can't return it, only sell it again.......sorry xlr

Heh, what's really fun to do is auction things you don't actually own. hahahahah There's a segment dedicated to what they do to you if that happens--pretty damn funny.

just don't pay for the damn thing... they wont's ship it, and if the seller is a BIG DICKHEAD, they'll get all pissed and tell on you...all e-bay will do is give you a 1 out of three possible warnings, and you might get a negative feedback...
i've done this exact thing with nin posters...

You could always try to email the seller with your best sob story. An Ebay bid is a legal contract, unless you mistype your bid or something.

GIVE UP EBAY...seems simplest...
or give yourself a limit and don't got over it...
As someone says, You can probably not bother paying for the first poster and won't get that much hassle for it...possibly a neg feedback but you could always create another ebay account with a different email addy...
