Preamble
I missed out on a wonderful bundle of a Pi and varioous hats, due to my playing the “gambling game”… bidding started at £20, but there was also a “Make an offer” button, so (in order to save a quick buck) I offered £19, the seller made a counter offer of £21. However, I decided to gamble and bid £20 instead – hoping to be the only bidder. Obviously I wasn’t and the bundle went for £21 – which is what I could have bought it for, if I hadn’t decided to gamble… oh well.
