So I was just browsing ebay instead of doing an assignment and decided to put a $10 bid on something..
I clicked it and went past the confirmation screen and didn't take much notice and next screen came up and umm well...
Current bid: AU $10.50
Your maximum bid: AU $1,000.00 :-X
I was wondering WTF happened, turns out my , and . were on backwards. I don't normally look at keys when I type, but for some reason when I was bidding I looked down and checked the keys rather than the screen. I had less issues with blank keys than I do with writing on them. So lesson learnt: Check keys are correct. I did have a good laugh about it though >.>

You can retract your bid, search in the helping table

I am sure that warranted some facedesking. Watch the horn unicorn.

LOL sometimes I swap people's key caps around to see what they do, most here cannot touch type :))

At least with $1,000 bid you can ensure victory in all but the most valuable item or extreme auctions.

Which reminds me I plan on doing this next weekend when I have to work around the office. They have those HP domes boards with all the same key profile for every row. Should be able to do some good ones.

I retracted it, but I couldn't help but to laugh at my own stupidity. Maybe next time I will take notice of the confirmation notice that pops up :p
