My Leo found a signed copy of Venus Trines at Midnight on ebay .. and I put a bid on it.
My max bid was $15, and I was winning at $10.50 but I forgot to check the auction cuz it ended while I was at work. So later that night I got home and checked - and I lost I was typing in all caps (to my Leo). I was so upset with my elf for only bidding $15 when I woulda paid $100. And there he was asking questions, listening, ... meanwhile I was logging on to see how much it went for. The winning bidder got it for $15.50. So here I am typing in all caps again, really really mad at my elf. Then - I see WHO the winning bidder is. It was my Leo. He was bidding against me and won. Now I know why I only bid $15 (cuz he didnt know how to tell it was me he was bidding against). I just got the book today. I have a pic of the inscription she made. Here is the link for the auction. If I knew how I would put up both.

noreenz .. I am sorry to hear you didn't get the book. I am glad I could - hopefully - make your loss a little easier. If someone can tell me how to put up the pic of the inscription, I will. I am not sure how to do it since it is just a jpeg on my hardrive, and it is not online .. although I might be able to put it in yahoo somehow??? Lemme know if you all are interested.

Hi Metoo,

I wasn't able to access picture. Thanks for trying. I wish I could offer some advice on how to post pictures like some of the others.
