Just Freakin' Dandy

I'm so pissed.

I just ended an auction on ebay that I had going. I made a deal with the highest bidder to sell for $120. (My breast pump that goes for about $275.) Well my first goof was that I somehow set the reserve for $150, but then when I went back to revise something else, it deleted the reserve price. So yeah. So I make this deal and go to end the item early. I thought the bidder had already put in the $120. She hadn't. So I just sold a $200+ breat pump for $50. Yay me.

I'm so pissed.

I was going to buy my new stroller with that money. We can't afford it without the money. This is just freaking dandy. And really I have no one to be mad at but myself. I am indeed stupid.


I'm so pissed. I just can't say that enough. I was counting on that money for the stroller.


And yes, I know it was my own fault- no need to repeat it.
And no one is bidding on my other auctions. I should have just sold the stupid shit with a consignment sale.



This is just the freaking cherry on top of a very craptastic day.


And she's going to turn around and sell it for more. I just researched her. Great. Just fukcing great.

Well. Okay. Small (grand) freak out over not much. In the end he (not a she!) showed me how to add a charge to make the total $120. I still feel like I could have probably gotten more, closer or more than the $150 I wanted, but I'm also glad to have it sold and not for less. (I'm still kicking my ass for not re-checking that the reserve price was set.
It is for the bouncer. Thank goodness. I'll still be short though. I was really counting on the pump being $150 and then the bouncer is set for $25 (retails for $50 and we hardly used the thing). Now I'll get $145 for both. The stroller I want (new) is $200. I do hope to find a nice used one, but we'll see.

Once we get the kids in the bigger car seats, I'll sell both infant seats plus their bases and the Duo Glider. All that for hopefully $200 or $250. But of course I can't sell that until I get a new stroller. And I'll do that at the twin sale just because I don't want to ship a beast of a stroller. (Or I'll possibly use Craig's list or do local pick-up.)


Anyway. I'm going through the house now looking for stuff to sell. Ha. If Callie doesn't stop annoying me, I may sell her.


Lesson learned. Pay more attention when selling shit on Ebay.
