Good look in your quest! Cheers. [/quote] Thanks FlatEric. Think it may go for rather more than it's standing at . I must have had a Mark 11 Destroyer. Remember I ordered it as "the 1st one to come into the country guv" around 82 ish. Mine was a metallic purple/maroon, with a headstock that seems to be common on Ibbys now, certainly not the vultures beak from original Explorers. Liked it so much I bough a White Gibbo Explorer bass, used it for some 15 years then grew up and sold it for £400. God I'm a prat! Found the fella, even though it's a different(better) colour.

karlfer Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Was winning with 2 secs to go with lost out to £203???? which was considerably less than my max bid. Where's that bloody canal, I'm going in . Karl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr H Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Was your maximum bid less than the next increment up from the winning bid (probably a fiver, so £208)? I lost something in that price range last week because my top bid was only £2.04 more than the winning bid, which must have been placed a second or two earlier. Gah! Damned by my own last-second sniping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlfer Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 (edited) Seem to remember reading on here somewhere that the bids kinda ping between competiting bidders in almost micro seconds. So, if Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms X upped the anti 2 secs before the end and the ping ran out of time when it was on their automated bid, even if neither had reached their highest bid, that's where it ends. Only thing that explains it to me. C'est la bloody vie. Karl. Edit. Are 53 year olds allowed Explorers/Destroyers anyway?
