I bid on an item when I had had too much to drink yesterday, It really isn't me(outfit).
I am still the highest bidder with 5 hours to go.
I really cannot afford it, cannot believe I was this stupid.
Can I get out of buying it????

go on tell us, what is it?

I think you can w/d bids when more than 12 hrs to go, but too late now.

You could contact seller at finish and offer to make up 1-2 x difference if they will sell to 2nd highest bidder instead.

It's a fetish, andirobo - people, apparently have a 'thing' for worn shoes and pay a fortune for them!

Phew - I have been outbid. It was for a black jumpsuit/all in one thing, obviously very drunk.

Those shoes were horrid, didn't know people sold things like that on there.

Now can you block sites for when drunk

seller has another pair of those shoes. Only £10 at mo but they are just foul. If there was any doubt about the true nature of the item it says it is a private listing and only the seller can see the bidder ID. How hideous.

I typed well worn into ebay search!!

Some shoes dont sell as well as others, that seem the same to me? I'm not sure how one would achieve £141 as loads dont sell at all

well each to their own!

yeah but until I read this tonight I had no idea to even search for 'well worn' - I live a sheltered existence!
