I know i offered you asking price on that card but you were no longer interested in taking that. Did I comment about your reputation? You had a right not to sell it..its your card and it was off the market, at least for that price

Nobody has a probem that was interested in the card..everyone had their chance. So far only Peter and pokerplyr had no interest in the card are worried about drama...

You are also assuming a lot from the Don post...

Don is fine with the situation, (Don correct me if i am wrong). His post said he would buy if IF i want to sell it...nothing about original paying asking price at that time..

....he was advised that i was already getting offers above original asking price (and card was no longer listed for sale at that time) when he first put the post here.....card sold to buyer that came before him anyway..so no harm no foul....

Also i just sold a 3 Venezuelan card group and though i was awaiting payment, i got 2 more offers on those cards for higher amounts. However, a deal was a deal and i waited for payment and sold those cards as a group even though I was offered more by 2 other buyers.

You really shouldnt be interfering with a B/S/T thread as well. Yours and Peters comments are not appropriate for someone that makes a big deal about commentary in a b/s/t thread.. Its hypocritical.. I dont know if you want me to comment about how i think you should handle a deal or it will impact your reputation on a b/s/t thread even when there is no buyer complaining Again, Don is the person that could complain but he isnt because there is nothing to complain about.

I only saw the sale this morning and I did see that Jake was taking it off the market, I did email Jake and offered to buy it at the original sell price if he would like to sell it. He did state he had a pending offer and offered it to me at$2400. I passed since I liked the first price. My problem was I saw the listing too late, you can't win them all. So no problem here. I will keep looking. Don.

correct i asked if he was interested in that price.

I also just earlier i told Don in an email , if i dont receive the payment, he has first opportunity to buy it. Don and I are on the same page.

I let everyone know i had pending offers above asking but they were contigent on better scans etc and advised everyone that due to time constraints (shipping the card off today if no deal in place as I already took the card off the market in anticipation) that any agreement would trump ongoing negotiations..

So the card is for sale at price X, then just a few hours later the card isn't for sale because I'm sending it to auction but if you offer me more it still might be. Sorry, but I don't like that. And no interference as I am not criticizing the card, and the sale is done. If you really wanted to withdraw the card, you could have deleted your post.

Payment is not made yet so you are interfering. Plus when you made your first post, the card was not noted sold. No offers were ever made on the card before i took it off. I took off the card at night around 8 pm et and at 6 am et some people expressed interest in the card. The post office is not open at 6 am et..

It would not be the first time someone offered to buy a card that was not listed for sale. I sent a package today to an AH and the jackie would of been included with it but for it selling .

Yeah I could of just deleted the whole thread but as you know Im a fan of keeping listings there. I did clearly say it was not actively for sale to avoid any 'ill take it' in the event the card was mailed off before seeing it.

Your criticism is really unwarranted given that you are complaining on behalf of Don who has ZERO complaints. You yourself never made any offer and yet its you and I with a back and forth. In addition, its a b/s/t thread....your opinions about what you like or dont like really are not for b/s/t... You dont even like it when people post 'nice card' so i would imagine people giving their opinions on your listings would also not be something you fancy

The person who made an art out of polluting BST threads really is not in a position to complain, IMO. In any event, I don't see the need for all the drama, I think people should list a card at a price, and not go through all these shenanigans like pulling the card and offering pricing analyses and bringing up past auctions and whatever. If you want the last word I won't say more.

All i see is that you are the one polluting the b/s/t thread. Its really hypocritical for you to be doing this. I cant even remember how long its been since i said anything more than nice card on a b/s/t thread. 3 years from now you will continue to say the same thing even if i did not do anything. I do know you wrote all of this today though. I think you took the baton for interfering with a b/s/t and are running with it.

I also didnt realize its bad to bring up past auctions...it was actually a current auction that closed during the thread and who cares if a past auction is quoted....again more unwarranted criticism. There was no problem with my initial asking price anyway. Its not like i was trying to compare a PSA 8 with a PSA 8OC card price. Nobody disagrees that my price was not reasonable yet you have to say there was something wrong with my pricing analyses?

Its B/S/T, i think people should be able to list a card without people saying what they dont like and saying there are shenanigans etc. I really do not think your position is defensible on this one. Don is not complaining or anyone else that was actually interested in the card. Plus its a b/s/t thread. relax
