One look does not make a complete search, if you really wanted it you
would search at various times of day as auctions are coming & going
all the time. It's taken me 3 months to find something I was after &
last night the perfect example showed up & I bought it.

Moral is to search & keep searching & not giveup after the first
attempt..
