No I was the to bidder at his reserve of 7000. I put my max bid at 8001 and was watching to see if somebody outbid me. Then he must of put a buy it now for 7700 with about 6 hours left. because nobody was bidding against me. I buy off ebay all the time and I know that the last 2 hours is when the auction is going to go. I also talk to him any was going to give him a deposit for the boat but he said he wanted to do the ebay auction. Oh Well enogh bitchin' I find another boat
