My guess as to what happened -
Seller lists the card for sale for X dollars or best offer...
Buyer A contacts seller and they agree at $3275 to have a deal.
Seller states paypal payment should be made to such and such address...
Seller receives another email from a Buyer B who probably offers $3,500 for said Mantle.
In the meantime Buyer A's transaction of $3275 goes through.
Seller says "oh $hit....I can make another couple hundred dollars here".
Seller tells Buyer A sorry circumstances are making me change my mind for the time being. I'll reimburse your money.
Seller tells Buyer B "hey you got a deal, but keep your mouth closed and please do not advertise you bought this from me".
Sounds about right. And if this is anything close, it's not worth the crap your name has just been rung through on this thread. You mentioned having other places to sell...of course you do. But how many of those places have this volume of specialized buyers and NO fees associated with said sales? I'd say you've screwed the pooch on this one, seller.
