What is this reality of which you speak?

I'll say 'exactly' next time. I said 'approximately' because real life occasionally interferes with my ability to time video game interactions down to the minute. Reality is inconvenient like that.

Then I humbly suggest that you replace the term "approximately" by "exactly" at 3:00 next time.
My timing was purposeful and related to your "precise" wording unfortunately.

I accepted the highest bid after 03:00 when I refreshed the market window. Olivia's was the highest. You probably didn't see the bid because it disappeared when I accepted it.
Trying to cut it close is a risk in any auction. Bidders lose like that on eBay all the time. If you felt the chainmail was worth 4200, it would have been better to post your offer several hours in advance, so there was no possibility I would miss the bid.

It is unfortunate that you elected to choose the term "approximate" in your auction description.

A 4,200 bid for 2,500 reinforced chainmail was posted at 3:01 for 15 min. But what I can say, she must need these a lot more than me these days.
