There are several factors that you're not considering. First, I don't see where he had 7 previous offers. But for the sake of argument, lets say he did. Look at his feedback. He doesn't sell much. Including your purchase, he's sold 4 items in the last 5 months. Here's my point. Even if he had 7 previous offers, perhaps he sold or traded the card and just forgot to remove it from eBay. Was this a best offer sale or just a regular BIN?

I recently did a large trade with a fellow board member. I traded 1 card, got 5 in return. He forgot to remove one of the 5 from his eBay store. I noticed it when I was browsing eBay. I sent him a message to let him know of his mistake. But what would have happened if another eBayer would have bought that card? The seller couldn't have delivered it because it was already in my possession.

Or, as stated above, perhaps the listing was a mistake since the description did not match the title. Anyway, I just think there are several things you're not considering that might have happened. Now, if you have proof that he sold it to someone else for a higher amount after you already bought it, then by all means blast him with a negative. But it sounds to me like you're just speculating.

As far as not returning any of your phone calls or emails, I see your point. Then again, it's only been less than 3 days since the purchase and he could be out of town.
