You seem to indicate that you were wrong as to the way you were critical of me if i indeed i was the first person to contact him.

Also you are confused as to my 'ill take it' but you cant see why i can be confused that you paid asking when i later saw the 'pm sent' (i already bought the card when saw that)

I like your posts and have nothing against you. You may of just wanted to pm me your concern than to jump on my b/s/t thread. Also i can email the seller if you wish to confirm it.

In addition, if you feel that some of your posts on my b/s/t thread arent that appropriate, you have been civil in your arguments. I am ok with it but rather you did it through pm. But afterall its not like you are calvindog who uses terms like scumbag.

We just can't seem to let this go can we? The seller made NO mention of who was the buyer.

I did not know you were the first person to contact him. I only saw your "I'll take it" comment 10 minutes AFTER my PM.

Huh? Not sure exactly what you mean? Why would you post "I'll take it" approx 30 minutes AFTER you bought the card. And after you saw my PM sent? If you were letting me know, hey I already bought the card, then that's not a very effective form of communication. Personally, I would have let the seller tell me the card was already sold. Can't you see where I thought you were trying to cut in line with your "I'll take it" post? How am I supposed to figure that means "I bought the card 30 minutes ago? Remember, I had NO reason to suspect you had already contacted the seller and agreed to buy the card. All I see is "I'll take it" 10 minutes after my PM

Fair enough about sending you a PM first. No need to contact the seller. It won't change anything

The seller did tell me that he told you he already sold the card when i mentioned the PM sent (i was curious as to what offer was made, if any even though i already bought the card), I had received an email with payment instructions and i called him about when payment would be made etc and thats when he told me that.

I can see your initial thought process. I do think though after what i wrote you should now see i did nothing wrong. I did contact him first and i did pay him asking price first. Its one thing to say i wasnt mentioned as the first guy, and its another to say he didnt tell you who the first guy was that contacted him which you just said. Again i am 100% sure it was me.

Anyway this my last post on this this issue. You can see Calvindog already jumped on our exchange which is silly as we have no beef. Grown ups solve issues. Kids do what kids do i guess. I think you agree i didnt do anything wrong now. I also can see why you may of thought something. Information and communication are important.

THIS IS THE SINGLE WORST THREAD I HAVE SEEN ON THIS SITE.

[cincyredlegs]

I read through this thread (well, just skimmed really) but Sean is 100% right. Honestly guys, I felt like I was listening to my 14 and 10 year old daughters fighting.....no kidding. It is really sad grown men are acting this way. You guys have to be better than this.

Just stop it. It's clear you guys don't like each other. Trust me WE ALL GET IT. You don't need to convince us anymore....LOL.

I agree. I am done with his nonsense. I not posting anymore on this thread. IM sure Calvindog will continue acting like to the 14 or 10 year old daughter (i at least should be the 14 year old one, hes the 10 year one )

All i did was post a card for sale. If you read everything and not just skimmed. There was zero need to call me an idiot or argue with price or make an lowball offer I think we can agree i should be able to just post the card again for sale without comments of calling me an idiot or post any other card without Calvindog being a 10 year old namecalling. (Incidentally i did make a sale on my other listing that i had with the Hank Sauer with zero comments)

We will see if CalvinDog can refrain from posting anything. If he wants to shout some more we can bring it on his b/s/t threads which i still havent posted anything since after he became a 10 year old daughter. We can then have people tell us we are both being clowns on his b/s/t threads.

I also shouldnt of gotten in the back and forth on this thread. Sorry guys.

good stuff

[DeanH3]

I too regret getting involved. I should have just kept on truckin like I usually do. Live and learn.

Jake -- if you've bought a card, why do you need to announce or post anything? Just let the seller mark it as sold. And if you want people to know you won it, post it on the new acquisitions thread. It's easy enough to see why Dean was confused.

Relatedly, even if it doesn't apply here, I agree that if it's clear someone has expressed interest in a card, the appropriate communication to the seller is along the lines of let me know if X doesn't buy it.

This thread makes me so sad for our hobby.

Yeah but I feel much worse for Jake's parents or wife and kids (gasp), should he have them.

Dean may of still been confused if i posted it as a new acquisition though at the time I said Ill take it, so i dont think that would of solved anything.


I was the first to express interest in the card. I do see why he was confused though and will go about it differently next time. I also think he will go about it differently in his frustration to just PM me instead of posting the issue on my b/s/t thread. Dean and I are good now as grown man can communicate and resolve things.

To Bobby who feels the thread is bad for the hobby: I agree, hopefully i wont get in a back and forth again with someone on my b/s/t thread. Its especially bad for the hobby considering Calvindog pays millions into the hobby and thus is a major player and takes the time for the back and forth in this unfortunate thread..

Sorry was supposed to be my last post, but Greg put that post there which was undeserved etc and then i was like what the heck and responded to your neutral post.

Yeah, I remember that one. I participated in that thread. And this will end my participation in this thread.
