Yes, it definitely sucks when that happens. But I think in this situation it's more of a learning experience. Now that @xdukeluvax has been through one auction, they will know what to expect for the next one. Namely that you should set an alarm for 5 minutes before the auction ends to make sure that nobody tries to bid at the end. If they do, then the auction simply gets extended and you have the chance to bid again yourself.
It definitely builds more awareness to try and counter being sniped. Sometimes it’s unavoidable when life interferes and he or she gets busy. Totally sucks when it slips through your fingers but it is what it is. If all else fails, PM the winner and offer him more than what he just paid hahahahaha
