Default A chance to argue about something different

Sniping is fun when done under the clinical supervision of a doktor.
They even have sniping services on the web now that will do the
sniping for you. But I've been a fairly successful sniper just using
the old fashioned manual method of waiting until about 3 seconds
before the auction ends, and firing away with my best shot.
I got a vintage fender reverb amp for $400 using my sniping techniques.

Check the usual pricing scheme for those... And mine was recapped
and "blackfaced"to boot.
I've been the victim of sniping myself. It can happen to anyone. I bid
on
some real estate in Arkansas a couple of weeks ago, and some other
sniper bit me in the heiney. But I keep a stiff upper lip through it
all,
and call it another day, another $2.41.. As far as your antenna, I
don't
have a clue. We had a quiver in the force recently, and I've forgotten
everything about antennas. I'm thinking about taking up barefoot water
skiing or something like that to fill my time.
