Don't You Love It.

Don't you love it when....

You buy a brand new OTA and then a week later there's one, slightly bigger, possibly slightly better, with extra's, for LESS money in the IIS classifieds.

We need a big red button to push that bans oneself from the classifieds for a month.

Don't even get me started on big goto EQ mounts.

It makes life much more enjoyable to not tolerate regret or guilt but certainly say sorry and pay reparations if needed but dont foster negative emotions...but one wonders why things like you mention happen with so many things.... You want a new battery for your car so you search for a couple of weeks then buy one and later that day your mate will say..
"why didnt you tell me I get them half price?!"

We know this will happen so just learn to live with it

Too true Alex.
Never look at tv prices after buying a tv, it will only end in tears.
