Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

My DH accidentally left out the decimal while bidding on an item. It was a big ticket item (laptop)....so instead of $405.00, his bid was $40,500.

DH sent an email explaining the mistake immediately and the seller understood that no one would pay 40K. Thank goodness because I imagine it could have gotten ugly.

The seller is requesting $30 to relist the auction or negative feedback will be left for DH. It seems like the right thing to do because the mistake does inconvenience the seller.

Chalk it up as a mistake, but it's best to pay or is there another way so neither side will be out $$?
I don't mind paying the $30 AT ALL if there isn't another way because I understand the seller may incur some expense.    Just wondering if there's another way.

Thank you!

My sweetie just paid the $30. Lesson learned.

LOL He was so sheepish to tell me because I suggested there are other ways to spend money (BABY IS COMING! & I want to move back to Vegas. LOL) besides a laptop.
He didn't want the "I told you not to." look.

How much time had lapsed before he sent the email? I did this once and didn't have to pay, but then I re-sent immediately as I realised as soon as I had hit the send button. And I was very sheepish to tell dh

Well it could be alot worse than $30.
