Can buyers also back out of a deal they agreed to?

Yes, at Net54baseball they can do it 1 time, as stated above. In over 20 yrs I don't remember it happening more than maybe a few times in many thousands of transactions (that I know about). So, it's sort of moot but yeah, as I said above, I think everyone gets 1 grace situation where they get buyers or sellers remorse. BUT, I am not a lawyer and this only pertains to the rules on this forum. If there is some law that overrides this, then I guess anyone can sue anyone in the US...I think almost all of us wish, at one time or another, we didn't do a deal we just did. I think it's nice to know you can make a mistake and not be banned. I would like to know about it and think I hear about most of that kind of stuff. A few members have been banned for not following through in situations but those were one-offs.
IF it hasn't happened, consider yourself lucky. And I don't think it's the worst thing in the world to call off a deal. It's not good but not the end of the world.

That said, I keep my word on all of my deals, but I do remember a situation where someone bought something off of my website. It hadn't been updated in a long time and 1 card was way, way off. So yeah, I called that one off as I wasn't going to eat about $7000....
