I don't know why everyone is jumping on Bobby.. It's clear that this was just an unfortunate mistake. It happens on these forums every day.

The best way to avoid these type of things would be to pay for items immediately.

Thank you - this is all I'm going to say on the matter. Craig and I worked out a deal for a card. We had a verbal agreement he would pay me the next day. During the middle of the night, the card sold and was paid for on Ebay. I forgot to take it down. An unfortunate situation, and I am sorry that it happened, but my hands are tied. I have been on the receiving end of situations like this as well. And yes, while not happy, I was understanding. There will be other cards. I am sorry this happened. If you choose not to deal with me, I am sorry you feel that way. I hope you change your mind in the future. For those of you who do choose to deal with me, I promise to do everything in my power to help you out or make sure you are satisfied. That is what I can offer.

I agree, had cparker paid immediately this wouldnt have been a problem. However... cparker and bobby agreed that he could pay the next morning. Had that not been part of the agreement, then yes, the card is for the taking.

It's as if he put the card on lay-away for 12 hours. If the agreement was that the card was his, awaiting payment the next morning, he shouldnt have to worry about it being sold anywhere else.

Steve,

I couldn't have said it any better than what you said. I appreciate everyone's take on this unfortunate matter. I think we all have our opinions on who is at fault. Some say I should have paid right away to avoid this which is true. However, we did have an agreement. He reneged. He could have corrected his mistake. He chose not to. That's what makes me most upset. I've been in the sales business for years and when I make a mistake, I do what I can to make it right, whether it is offering a discount on a future purchase or whatever. Make the customer happy. In this case, he could have done a little research and see that I have a huge wantlist of 828 cards (www.mytoppscards.com) and maybe he could have offered me a similar card of equal value for the same price. I mean, I almost expected him to do something. Well, that's all I can say on this. It is what it is. I hope we all can learn from this and be better for it.

Craig from Texas
