sniped and skunked

One has to be ever-vigilant. I grew complacent having waited on the last several auctions I won during the last 5 minutes until close. I had won all these auctions without incident. Yesterday I figured I had won another hook and got up to take care of business with a minute to go. Sure enough I got back and looked for my "win". It wasn't there. Some Colorado collector sniped me during the last 2 seconds before the auction closed. I won the next auction I was bidding on... lesson learned. Never grow complacent!
