I don't usually get mixed up in these posts (I learn more from reading than spouting off), but this conversation seems a little silly. Some years ago, I bought a Ducks Unlimited painting (among other things) at a auction for $15. I knew the person having the sale, and was glad to help make them some cash. About 3 months after the sale, I had the chance to have the painting appraised. It turns out its worth about $450.
At the sale I was the high bidder, so no-one thought it was worth more. Yet when I mentioned what it was worth to a friend who went to the sale with me, first thing he said was, "you stole it at that price". No, I gave more than anyone, including the owner or myself, thought it was worth at that time.
Am I supposed to feel guilty every time it turns out that I DIDN'T make a bad deal? Do I now dig out the $435 difference and find the original owner? Are some of you trying to tell me that every time you find that, 'diamond in the manure pile', you rush back and pay the difference?
Somehow, that just doesn't ring true. I agree with some of the others....this sounds like sour apples to me.
