if you regretted bidding on it, why didn't you just tell me you had bidder's remorse? i'm an honest guy and i would have let you off the hook without the need of a contrived, sympathy-evoking justification. then again, your smarmy move now makes me think twice about being so nice to fellow ebayers.

shenanigans, indeed.
