That would be me. I had to go to work in the morning and the bid was going to end in the early afternoon. I wanted one, lost on several previous opportunities, so placed a maximum bid that I know was higher than others of you might have paid for yours. If I could have watched the last few minutes of bidding I could have played the bidding game and probably paid less. I tell myself it is still less money than a Plisson brush. If anyone has a spare of the white blade holder, mine is missing one, I would like to buy it.
