So, I'm a nice, easygoing person. However, sometimes other people's rude actions just REALLY upset me. Here's the story:
I have been patiently waiting, for awhile, to find a LV Monogram Medium Agenda. I have searched everywhere
, as LV does not currently offer this style. Recently, I hit the jackpot 
. Late one night, around midnight, I was "surfing" the internet and I found an authentic LV Monogram Medium Agenda listed on Ebay. The item was listed as a "Buy It Now," "gently used" Agenda for $275 USD. According to the item's history, the Agenda had been listed for awhile, as it was a "Buy It Now." Now, I'm a decent judge of authenticity, however, I decided to post under the "Authenticate This" forum prior to purchasing, just in case. BTW, the "Authenticate This" authenticators totally rock :urock: ! Anyways, I finished the posting process and decided to double-check the website link to prevent any frustration and assist in a timely authentication process. No sooner had I posted the threat and clicked on the website link, the Ebay item displays, "This auction has ended." The ITEM WAS PURCHASED! I'm thinking, "No way?!" 
I refresh the page and attempt the link again; same thing. I'm not an idiot, maybe naive, but not an idiot. I hate "jumping" to conclusions but I really feel as if I was screwed over by a fellow TPFer, who saw the auction and thought, "Wow, that's a great buy!" 
I truly try to give others the "benefit of the doubt," and I find it sad that I was possibly "screwed over" by a fellow purse-lover. 
We are kinda like a family. In summation, eventually I was able to find another Agenda, however I'm still saddened by that night's events and VERY hesitant to post anything under the "Authenticate This" forum anytime in the near future.

I have sometimes wondered if posting something in ‘authenticate this’ would get other TPFers looking at that item. You can't know that’s what happened though...it's just as likely that the authentication had nothing to do with the item selling.
