Is this an example of suicide by bulletin board ?

No, just the appalling state of mathematics education in the USA today.

Wow. So someone takes the time to put a businessman on blast, and trash him in public....but doesn't take the time to:

1. Check math before mouthing off.
2. Delete the original post.

And also shilled his own card?

Hysterical. #comeuppance.

Not to defend the OP, if in fact he did shill his own auction, but he has a point about the "invoice."

According to the 2nd spreadsheet, Probstein owed him $696.73 for the 11 items in the 2nd grouping. The relisted card sold for $51.50 more than it did the first time, resulting in a net to the OP of $45.32. This means Probstein owed the seller $696.73 + $45.32 = $742.05. Instead, Probstein shows a net final of $654.38 which means he did not add the $45.32 to the due amount, but instead subtracted $42.35 from the due amount. So essentially, the OP was short-changed $87.67.

For those of you who say Probstein was just fine, please explain why it is fine to not pay the OP the $45.32 he is due for the relisted card and in addition, subtract $42.35 from what he is owed from the 11 cards sold in the 2nd grouping.

How does one determine the OP shilled this auction and actually ended up winning it from the information above?
