[Kathy Griffin] All of these trips can just suck it! [/Kathy Griffin]

But seriously, how the heck are we (or the people on stage) supposed to price things like... Belize? Or having what amount to essentially a crew of servants in your house? I mean, we know the price of the personal chef and the maids from past experience, but how many of us have priced them for ourselves?

I don't know if it's skill or luck, but namnhu12 did manage to DSW on the servants/stove/Belize package. The piano was pretty close between Flerbert and Fireball, but the former did win it.

Just for the record, please note that I didn't give the worst overbid on SC2. Almost, but not quite.

Of course, 19009 / 23009 works well today...grr.

It seems like this week is the week of FRTS. I am am just glad I did second overall.

After a little research, I've discovered that the piano in SC1 was over $9K, way more than I would expect for an upright.  That pretty much explains my garf there.

As for SC2, I went a bit too conservative with Belize, and I messed up on the personal trainer, as well.

So for the second time this week, I'm posting this:

It was kinda challenging pricing a professional chef, a personal trainer, and maid service for a year. SC #1 was easier to price.

Ugh, three overbids in a row. I need to rethink my strategy.

...if I keep playing the way I have been, someone will have to strip me of the title of King of FRATS before long.

$20,200/$23,300... heck FREAKING yes. In your face, evil second showcase. You threw this impossible-to-price personal trainer/chef/maid junk at me, and I still owned you. Not to mention Armadillo and everyone else. Nothing feels better than when I do this well, because it proves exactly why I play the way I do. Do I overbid more than most people? Sure. But you'll never see me safety garf or anything like that, because I am always going to go for it. Even though I may be on the wrong side more than I'd like to be, nobody can say that I'm not close. Rarely ever are my overbids atrocious. I mean, we call it a Heels for a reason. So I'll swallow the numerous heartbreaking overbids, because this kind of performance is precisely why I play the way I do. I don't regret it one bit.
