Seriously. There can't be that many people getting into terrible car crashes right after inquiring about a collectible.

Come on man ... Make some noise to wrap up the communication that you started! "I'll take it" or "Thanks but I will pass on this" or "Would you accept X?"

Something!

I agree but this goes the other way too...seller writes that they're considering offers, potential buyer writes with "would you accept X?" and never hears anything back.

Or after submitting a reasonable and fair offer on eBay, the seller raises the BIN and blocks you.

Non-vintage sellers selling vintage, pricing their inventory at 10x the value.

Hmmm.... when it comes to this "hobby", I don't think I want to get started.

I will say that I still enjoy looking at the stuff, but it's lost a little sparkle.

I am just glad I am still upright, sniffing the air and trying to enjoy what is left of the hobby.

I lament the apparent end of vintage card scholarship inside grading companies. I've got some free time, if they need people willing to scour Newspapers.com and write cogent, 100% correct opinions!
