I bid on some bolo ties and completely forgot about it- missed the email after Id won them. The agent called me and let me pick them up a couple days later, which was really kind of her to coordinate. Will definitely bid again (and not forget next time ;) )
I asked 4 times (2 messages, 2 emails) to retract my bid because I didn't realize it was damaged. After my attempts to retract my bid, the description heading was changed to "damaged", making it very obvious now! Ended up throwing the purchase away because it can't be used because the handle is broken!
Was disappointed that condition issues weren't noted in the auction post for my 2 items. I was able to repair the jewelry box when I got home, so am now happy with that piece. But for the ottoman, the fact that the base falls off when you pick it up to move it, should have been mentioned in the post. I wouldn't have bid on the item had I known that. The base of the ottoman is an interesting MCM design, so hopefully I can resell it at a discount with full disclosure of the condition.
