I finally found a gun I have been looking for , a Browning A-Bolt II Micro Medallion, in .308 , on GunBroker.com Friday night. The auction was due to end last night at 6:30 p.m. I told my wife to get ready, cause I was buying it. I began to bid, and got pat the reserve price at 650.00. Others began to bid on it, and I got past all of them .... EXCEPT ONE ..... some yahoo named mother 1 ( with no prior purchases ) started bidding against me. Oh man, was I ever ticked... I mean P.O. ed. I was getting all excited and angry. I wanted to go find this person and beat the crap out of him.
Well I finally gave up when the price got to $ 815.00, with no end in sight. I let this mother 1 have the mint condition gun , in the box. I felt like tossing my cookies, and was venting, when my wife came and told me that she was mother 1
. She wanted to buy the gun for me, so she found gunbroker.com and logged on , and started bidding.
I was bidding against against my own WIFE, and didn't know it. Why she decided to buy it for me, and do it by bidding against me, I have no earthly idea...... but I do know it cost us an extra 120 + dollars to get the gun...:smack: :smack:
I love her for wanting to do something nice for me, but O.M.G. please..... why would my own wife do that to me , and cost us the extra money
And then she also came and told me I owe her big time..... What the Hel*??
Oh well, at least I am getting the gun.
And there is another one on there now, in .243, but it is not near as nice.
I cannot wait for it to get here...
