The next forty-eight hours passed like a million, but finally, The Funn Family shoes were back up on the auction block. Bidding was open for ten days. Ten f*****g days. Still, Gideon hoped to have them by Christmas—if he could talk the seller into throwing in expedited shipping for gratis. “I can barely afford the shoes,” he said aloud, posting the first bid of ten bucks, the minimum amount set by the current owner, “let alone Fed Ex rates.”
BuyBay on the laptop, shower, BuyBay on the tablet, singing dressed as Elvis, BuyBay on the phone, more singing, BuyBay on the laptop again, bed, and dreams about BuyBay—that was Gideon’s schedule over the next week. He even stopped to check his phone partway through grocery shopping the morning after payday.
