Auctions sucks

Well the house we put in a bid for 2 weeks ago got sold Saturday for $6000.00 less then what we offered (found out from the news paper)......I don't know if we should be happy about this or sad for the vendors.......just figured out why the real estate guy called me Saturday and asked how far away we were from the auction.

For some reason he did not seem to impressed when I told him we had bought elsewhere.
