Hmmm.... what about the person who makes it to the 
site at the same time this guy did? What if it 
were just a matter of who typed up the request 
faster?  They may have 
really wanted it but lost it someone who needed 
extra cash?  I'm sorry, I don't buy that argument.    
I won't pay more just because I don't have time to  
"watch the clock".. or couldn't type faster.  ^^;
