My plan was to display it as a waner bat with the auto's turned to the back. I thought I had won the bat Sunday night and my bid held up until just before the final 10 minute bidding on Monday. Not happy I lost it but I was not happy about the extra day of bidding given to make up for the 4 minutes of downtime. So getting closer to a vintage bat. But as blank spot on my bat rack reminds me close doesn't count...
Whoever got that bat got a steal. Too bad about being outbid---do they notify you via text message if you're outbid? They notify me by emails, and I sometimes neglect to look.
