I'm glad you were able to make a deal. I've made a deal or two with him, but still ended up overpaying.
The worst is when I lose an auction to him knowing I am the strongest buyer on the market for a rare card, only to see it pop up for double what the auction went for on his store. I get it that he's playing the long game and banking on appreciation over time, but it sucks that collectors lose out to flippers like him from a fair market price for a card at the time. |
Then you are not the strongest buyer is someone is outbidding you. You might be the strongest "collector" buyer and usually a collector can outbid a dealer BUT as noted, if the dealer realizes scarcity is paramount, they might not care and go for the gusto in bidding for an item
