I don’t think anything you said here would make me think he’s a bad person. His only negative came from an international buyer who didn’t like the shipping costs. He probably looked at your very close and reasonable offer and decided to raise the price so he could get more for the card especially with high grade T206 which are jumping in price constantly. You may be upset that you couldn’t come to an agreement over a card you want but it’s his prerogative to sell it or not and for what price. Good luck in your search.

I don't consider 99.2% to be bad feedback. You run into one jerk in the last 12 months and you can be lower than that.
Just a thought...Ebay will add the "best offer" option automatically whether you want it or not if an item doesn't sell. Maybe his intention never was to accept offers at that price. I've done the same thing, though not right after receiving an offer. When I price something straight buy it now, it's at the lowest price I'll accept. Then ebay slaps the best offer option on it and suddenly I'm getting offers lower than I ever considered accepting. Since this guy bumped up his price, but left the best offer option on it, I suspect this happened.

I have had that happen to me as well. I had the price at the lowest I would accept, and Ebay erroneously put the "best offer" option on it. Then the low ball offers started roling in. I declined them all and quickly removed that option. |

I’ve had direct deals with this person and he’s a stellar guy. I wouldn’t take it personal and perhaps reach out to talk to him. You might get a different perspective. I believe he is a member here and also a high rank PSA set registry guy in the T206 world.
I have nothing but good things to say about the guy. Sorry to hear about your experience. |

Looks like he sold it, offline.

First thing I thought of was a COMC seller who shall remake nameless.

I see no problem with this-you counter an offer and the seller can reoffer anywhere--higher or lower.

It’s possible this card was already sold and to deter a purchase seller needed to do what he did. I’ve seen this happen on several deals that were made away from eBay. Not that I condone trying to make deals off good old eBay.
Let’s stop assuming. The seller is a standup person. |

I would not let it bother you. You made a nice offer he said no deal. If it wasn't meant to be it wasn't meant to be. I would leave it at that and move on. In terms of pricing anyone can ask anything for said card, I don't take it personal.
