Having had my eyes on her for years, without ever quite managing to find myself in the same general area as her and at the same time, she made what was going to be a successful bid vs a dozen others on a recent Reverse Booking I'd placed.
I sent an anticipatory note to let her know before I actually accepted the bid, but was surprised and taken aback to find she wanted a deposit -- it rather seemed to me that bidders at an auction don't get to set the terms of payment (unless signalled in advance of bidding), and, so far as I could see there is no mention of it on her profile. Still, she was polite enough in response to my expressed dismay, and I've every hope that I'll manage, eventually, to take up the further recommendation of this review.
