AN APOLOGY

Yesterday morning I made, what in retrospect, can be regarded as a fairly boorish post. I had not been paying much attention to the auction details as my jar of Acorns would not allow me to partake. All I saw was, I believe it was @alfredus making what in my eyes was an outrageous bid for a razor and passed a facetious comment. I am now aware of the ultimate recipient for the bid amounts and therefore wish to apologise whole heartedly to both @alfredus and the members of P&C as a whole.

Great to see a bid after so long! Let's make sure that we get a little more for this one though, it is a one of a kind -

$1,000

[insert @SpeedyPC "go hard or go home" / "come and get me" GIF]
 
As much as I wanted this razor to match the OC Tradere that I have inbound from Blackland. Too hot for me now.

Go on, I will not bite. Never know, for just $101 over your previous bid it could be yours ...

Amortise the cost over the rest of your lifetime, there will NOT be another chance and auction regret is real ...
