[Shoeless Moe]

So earlier I messaged him and he messaged back right away. I then asked if he got this graded by PSA, and radio silence. 8 hours later still not a peep.

His silence says a lot.

Also, if you do a deep dive into his feedback years ago left for others you will see it littered with negative comments, so another red flag. Some of the replies from the other Ebayers start to add up and give a clearer picture:

Not open to a friendly discussion about his product.....

Ticket was not as described...miscut, but described as MINT by seller

Irresponsible bidder used feedback extortion and attempted to bribe me to not report him to eBay for non-payment.

This guy had shill bids on his auction so I gave him a neutral,He's getting back


So doubtful he will reply at this point and guessing I know why. Now its possible I'm completely wrong and I will amend this if he shows me otherwise, but if I'm a buyer and see all these negatives on a sellers account, to me that's a red flag and I'd proceed with extreme caution or more then likely avoid.

But I believe another piece of the puzzle has fallen into place.
