E, DanielI think you guys are sharing too much dirty laundry.
As I see it you both agreed on a price and card swap pot pouri, the rest is kind of irrelevant now.
Besmirching eachother on this board when essentially an agreed upon deal was consumated is unbecoming to you both.
And I agree with Joann completely. The buyer/now seller's motivations for gaining the card - which he says was on behalf of a third party, has zero impact on my understanding of where it all sits now. That's on his conscience because none of us can know his true motivations, and there's every chance his version of events are equally accurate. If he had screwed Bill out of money by not paying an agreed amount then he should be hazed mercilessly. Wants to sell the card immediately, big woop.
If Bill wishes he'd made more money on the deal, that's on him. If he wanted the card to go to a collector who would hold it for 20 years - then that's a fantasy he needs to shelve if selling more cards to other collectors.
No offense Bill, as you seem like a nice guy.
