So if I infer correctly, he thinks you only hit the BIN on underpriced cards so anything you buy must be mispriced?
Thanks for sharing.

I have helped Ted get into shows for free prior to public access, given him free cards for autographs for emergency situations, and bought and sold to him in the past with no issues. For you to post this thread shows that no good deed goes unpunished.
A 1952 Topps Eddie Mathews was purchased for $650 among 7 other items that were cancelled. I had to cancel orders for three different people and pull the entire 1952 Topps set down. This was an isolated incident and you can see in our completed listing the entire set was pulled down late last night. We had to get tech support on the phone and had an emergency with the errors on this set. 100% of the items that "sold" were cancelled and this member was NOT singled out. This was a gross spreadsheet and pricing error and you refused to accept that answer. I am so sorry that you could not let some pricing errors slide. If anyone would like to see a copy of my upload spreadsheet to in fact verify what I have said, I am more than willing to provide it. Here is a photo from last night on our website showing how wrong these errors were: Here is a photo showing the cancellations and the set being taken down (you are not alone): Last edited by Sean1125; 02-06-2016 at 09:36 AM. |

This is probably the best way to handle this problem, there are way too many others to deal with. Why bother with the ones you don't like or trust.

I had had issues with Sean in the past, but if its an obvious pricing area no matter on the amount of cards than its understandable...if you were a consignor to Sean you wouldn't want your card sold at 10% market price you would want him to cancel the sale as an example..
if i had done that to you, i probably would of given you a coupon discount like 10% on future orders though to keep you happy |

I sold a bunch of cards to Sean only a few weeks ago. I said if they weren't as I described to let me know. He actually gave me a little extra cash after the fact because he thought they were a good deal to him. He's been fabulous and honest to deal with. I've had sellers cancel purchases because of a mislisted item probably 5 times. It happens.

I have had Sean find me high dollar and low dollar cards over the years; I have had him help me sell when I needed to sell a piece to get a new one, and didn't have the bandwidth due to work-- and he's always been upfront, honest, and diligent. He responds promptly when I reach out, and I would recommend him to anyone.
He's a dealer, so he will never pay a collector's price, which is an important thing to keep in mind when a collector is trying to sell TO any dealer. As opposed to THROUGH the dealer. Though once we were able to match numbers on a larger deal, and he wired high five digits in my account immediately. That action talks. Anecdotally, at a show once I saw him give a customer extra money, after he paid for and then bumped a card. I remember remarking to myself that not many dealers would do that, well after buying a card. I felt it was a stand up gesture and I felt it telling of his character. Seems there was some kind of clerical error here, as opposed to anything nefarious. If I saw cards that were listed in such error on eBay I might hit the BIN, but I would understand if the seller saw and asked to correct his mistake, seems reasonable.

Ebay is a contract. There are legal obligations for both the buyer and the seller. The seller, in this case, breached the contract. Not only is it legally wrong for him to do, it is ethically wrong. It's also bad taste.
Ive made pricing mistakes on ebay as well. I met my obligation and took the hit. (and no, they weren't only mistakes of a couple of bucks but a significant amount) I then scanned my remaining items for pricing errors. It was the right thing to do. At worst, the seller should have first asked the buyer permission to cancel the purchase. If the buyer did not want to then the seller was legally (and ethically) bound to sell the item. |

Past "good deeds" or "he is a stand up guy" or "Ive had great dealings with him in the past" does not matter...especially when he just did exactly opposite of the claim. People DO make mistakes but how you handle the mistake makes the difference.
You should not treat anyone differently just because you think that you can get away with it for the reason that you are a part of a similar community. |

I see a moral problem with someone trying to take advantage of a seller's honest mistake and buy a card for 10-20, or even 50% of its value. Like Matt said, had I seen a card like that on a BIN, I might have hit the buy button. But I certainly wouldn't hold it against the seller when he catches the mistake and cancels the sale.
