I'm with shotta 100% here!!!
I'll be surprised if it was only lurking from ssdb who made a BIN offer to the seller to finish the auction early..it just happens that he made the best offer and got em.
Unfortunately there ain't a rare pair for every1 to own soo ya gotta do all ya can if you want them badly enough.
If you've waited numerous years for such and such a pair why even risk missing out and knowing some of you have waited yrs for a certain pair i'd not begrudge or be angry if you did grab em b4 the auction ended.
No1 can say we don't help each other out on here but sometimes u gotta look after number one
Your all in the same boat...just make sure your the one who paddles the hardest next time.
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

I’m with you on this one Shotta, David never done anything wrong he just wanted the shoes real bad like a lot of us do and I don’t see the reason for him leaving the forum for that. It's nice when people give way like Rob and Lurkey gave to Grimmy for them blue pats but sometimes you have to fight for them. Now I’m not sure but if the auction was ending soon then I have to say Lurkey was wrong but temptation steps in when you see shoes like them canvases. Don’t leave Lurkey!
Hey, what are you doing here, I thought I told you to go fuck your mother.

Yeah, I'm with Pokey and Shotta too.
Lucky being a US12 and there's not many of us on the SSDB, but the few times Farmer and I were about to go head to head on a pair we worked it out on PM first. I remember specifically a pair of Ian Browns that I was going to outbid him on, but he wanted more than me so I bowed out and he got a great deal. Biggest wallet doesn't have to win - people should be able and willing to sort things out before the last few seconds of an auction.
Back when there was some good heat for me on the bay I used to have to deal with a US12 reseller in Chicago that had massive deep pockets. I had to pay a premium to him to get my UNDFTDs but everything else he outbid me on I eventually got for much cheaper. And he flamed out.

As am I, I can see it being frustrating, but I'm sure we've all done it (or at least attempted to) once or twice.
Where possible I keep an eye out on the fellow bidders and if I recognise the username I'd get in touch to prevent a massive bidding war. Like Lorrie and Farm. Not seen him about for a while actually, hope he's all good.
It was fuckin' obvious that that cunt was gonnae fuck some cunt.

Well, J, since you found me my grails I am forever obligated to not bid on anything you're interested in.
You all could do well to follow our bigfooted example of kindness and understanding.
