Now for the more fun question how many posters in this thread that stuck up for the seller was asked to and/or received compensation for doing so from that seller? |

I can't believe that is even a serious question. Seriously...if a car dealer makes a mistake and lists a $25,000 for $15,000, do you SERIOUSLY think they have any obligation to honor that sale?????? Only on Ebay and only on baseball cards, are sellers supposed to honor obvious mistakes. What a crock.

Ok but what about when a buyer says they didn't mean to bid the winning bid? What is your perspective on a mistake made by a buyer?

It happens all the time. Nothing can be done about it. Just block the buyer, relist the card, and move on.

My real point is that neither explanation from a seller or a buyer making an incorrect listing or bid makes any sense. There are multiple confirms you have to go through to list an item for sale, just as there are when you place a bid. In my opinion, if something is listed for sale and is sold, that is the end. The same as if a bid was placed. There shouldn't be any excuses.

after seeing "the list" and 9 million other cases of fraud, do you think a seller offering to compensate for a favorable post is really outta the question?
please. this is in no way an opinion that sean has done so. (repeat) simply a retort to bobby stating that it's a crazy assumption that no seller would ever do this. anything is possible in this day and age. simply look at where some of the ah/hobby pioneers are residing today. nothing surprises me these days. nothing. i'll get to unicorn island one day though, bob!

The OP claims that he bought 4 cards. Unless I overlooked it, only 1 of the cards have been identified - 1952 Topps Frank House error card for $7.95. Search eBay completed listings and you'll see $7.95 is probably an average price for this card (regular card, not the error). I have to agree with the OP on this one. He basically claims that the seller didn't know it was an error card (and priced as a regular common) when it was listed, and only discovered it was an error card after he purchased it and used the 'pricing error' excuse not to sell it for the BIN price. I would like to see a link to the original auction. If there is no mention of it being an error card in the original auction, then the OP is absolutely right on this one. If there is mention of it being an error card, but priced at $7.95, then the seller is right on this one in that it was a pricing error. Link to auction??? (I searched completed listings and couldn't find it). |

I totally agree Bob, and I have made my comments in this thread in support of the seller. But the comments from some of the posters are simply beyond reason. You cannot reason with people who are unreasonable.

Agreed. Oh just one question for you. And surely you can answer it because, after all, you are reasonable, right?
Question is, aafter how many times does it go from a listing error (mistake) to a habit? Last edited by vintagetoppsguy; 02-18-2016 at 08:40 PM. |
