I have an event at New Year where I need one! Been looking for ages for an actual robe with no luck and forgot to bid on a pattern I saw a little while ago. I keep forgetting to look for patterns! Argh!

^Yes, and it sold for a ridiculously low price but I forgot to increase my bid and then it was too late.

These were so cute. I should have bid higher, they only sold for $38

Drappa have you thought of using Esnipe or similar website?

I enter my highest bid and let the system take its course, saves having to watch the auction.

Yes, I often use a sniping service, but because I was actually home at that time didn't think it necessary and then something came up, well you know how it goes. Probably just as well, the seller didn't know what size the pattern was, and I have never re-sized.

Bidding went too high, which is a shame since I have the book coming my way.

Ooh, that jacket pattern is pretty. such a shame 
I had been looking for this for a long time. Unfortunately when I finally found a copy it had already sold. Oh well, eventually another one will pop up, hopefully closer to my size.

I saw that this morning too. I had been waiting for the site owner to come back from vacation. I guess a few other people were to. I did manage to get one cute pattern though.

^Darling dress, how much did it go for?
I was outbid, but it went much too high for my liking, and was missing one piece

Was watching this Canadian catalog but the seller must have received an offer because it ended with no bids and there were 4 days left on the auction.

I forgot to bid on these 1940s frames... I had been watching them for days and they sold for less than I was willing to pay

Oh no! I feel your pain, LinaSofia, those might be the cutest glasses I have ever seen, no exaggeration!

$89 plus shipping. It was billed as a 40s Swirl, too. Probably well worth it, but well out of my range, too! Oh well.

Bidding hasn't even ended for this yet and I already know I'm out of the running. Gorgeous vintage Richard Hudnut vanity case with red sparkliness, both the compact and lipstick are in gorgeous shape, the fabric purse they go in is gorgeous, and they're all still in the box.
