The shoes that I nearly never have...

The story is quite long... But I will try to make it short...
As soon as I have seen these shoes, I knew I had to have them. I liked everything, the color, the design, the heel... Knowing they were Avril Gau shoes, and discovering that Avril Gau worked for Chanel did not help me to become reasonnable.
I found them on Ebay with the first bid at 9,99 Pounds... I fixed myself a limit of 50 Pounds, which became lately, when biding was close to end, illusory...
I won the auction with a final price under... 90 Pounds, which I still found reasonnable. (And nope, I even don't feel guilty)
Couple of days later I received an email from the seller apologising as while she was packing them for shipping, she realizes she had put on auction the wrong size and she was proposing a full refund. I was so dissapointed!!! I needed those shoes! (Well, yes, the kind of need, that is absolutely not a need, as I can assure you I am not in lack of shoes... uhm....) But still I could not admit I would not have them, or at least see them and try them on... (yes not really a sensible reaction, I know)
After exchanging a couple of mails, with this fabulous seller, we came to an agreement and she send me the shoes, for a try, which are fabulous and fit... So I decided that I will keep them...
Happy ending, ugh????
Do you often buy things that you really need? (well, we understand each other here with the word "need", do we?)
