Neopet peeve

There are two Draik Transmogrification Potion up in auctions for an amazingly low prize. One auction will last for another 2-8 hours, another 8-24 hours. And still idiots keep bidding and bidding on these items as if their lives depend on it. The only thing they're doing is driving up the prize and in the end someone who bids on it for the first time will run off with the item.

Gah. This annoys me so much. I mean, don't they have any brains? If you think about it longer than 1 minute, you know you're only screwing yourself over (and everyone else interested in the item).

Well, considering that the average age of neopets users is around eight ...

Is it though? I know the initial aim was college students, I have no clue how old most users are. Way too many teenagers though.

Look at the sponsors. They're all aimed at pre-teens or younger.

Hrm, true. Shit, now I feel old.
