I have had the utmost professional experience from this seller. Mario, your post makes no sense to me when you say the "buyer" backed out of the deal. Were you the buyer? I would also go out on a limb and say they have far more knowledge in vintage sportscards than all of the posters on this thread combined. I am not in any way affiliated but will say I have done business for many years......well before this board blew up and say that I have never had a negative experience. If you do not like the prices then just move on down the road. Sounds like a case of sore ass spoiled child syndrome to me.

I have purchased some 52 Topps from them in years past without a problem. I also was not sure I completely followed what the OP said had happened.

I think he meant to say the seller, not the buyer, backed away?

How can you "rip" people a new one when they have to hit the purchase button. You make no sense in your statement. Are you eluding that they sell altered, reprint items, or just take money and do not deliver product? To me those fall into the perimeters of "ripping" off. Please elaborate. Jason |

Give the OP a break. To say his entire post makes no sense is ridiculous. He transposed one word. Replace the word "buyer" with the word "seller" and his post makes perfect sense.
That said, there are always 2 sides to every story. I'm sure the other two involved will tell their side as they are board members. However, if it happened as the way the OP described - raising the price after it was already agreed upon - then that is pretty crappy. |

I have never dealt with the seller in question, so I have no vested interest one way or another. But it is my opinion that they are purposely misleading potential buyers on the Old Mill-backed T206 card, and that makes a very bad first impression, indeed. And if it is true that they have "far more knowledge about vintage sportscards than all the posters in this thread combined", they should really be ashamed of themselves.

Who is calling names? Mario, I am not kicking you about anything…..trust me if I did you would not be posting. You are correct, I do not know you from Adam, but you came on here and pressed an opinion that I am certian that is flipped and not entirely accurate. So when I post my opinion you call it name calling or kicking? Not true Sir. I call nobody names. Let's keep this to cards and let people respond that have actually done business with irishhosta. Again, I have no dog in this fight, but I will not be silent and let someone who is chapped because a price did not go their way to sit here and down-grade a good seller. Atleast they grade accurately and are honest sellers. Also I understand you paid your dues with grad school and all…..alot of us are educated. But we all know that does not mean anything when it comes to character and running a business. You must be a banker, stock trader, or politician.
Take care, Jason |

LOL what does this mean? Like a Bill Mastro type tirade when a collector wouldn't sell him the cards he wanted at the low-ball price he was offering?

And Jason, Irishhosta has no reason whatsoever to respond to this thread. A proven, honest seller ignoring ridiculous public assertions is not an indication of guilt.

Seems the OP is alluding to a deal in which a seller backed out. Or something along those parameters.

I have no idea if they are honest or not but at a glance their prices on T206's seem absurd to me. & Mario, good luck on collecting. My only advice to you is lay off those Cheetos- Last edited by chernieto; 05-07-2014 at 11:06 AM. |

Absolutely nothing, in fact I would consider doing business with them in the future. I'm simply asking them to 'honor' a price we had agreed to.
Unfortunately for buyer and seller, there was a misinterpretation of the negotiated selling price and concerns have been voiced here. I have NO issues with their customer service or contact emails. Mario Borgerding Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk

Sweet deal on that "brown" Old Mill, ain't it?

Are you referring to the one with the black back? Probably just an honest oversight

Not knocking you for posting publicly your side of the story - many forum members think that resolving transaction issues by using pressure from the forum, is the best approach to doing business. I used to sometimes publicly out forum members who backed out on deals, either as sellers or buyers, but it's not effective - their enemies will jump in to attack them, as is happening in this thread, and their friends will jump in and attack me. Ends up being a lose-lose for everyone involved, and as far as the transaction is concerned, nothing changes.

Scott, there is nothing wrong with being buddies or defending Irishhosta. However, there is a problem with name calling and below the belt insults. It only makes the one being defended look worse.

I also agree with you that name-calling and below the belt insults are inappropriate. And finally, I'm sure you agree with me that there are two sides to every story, and that we are probably missing some details. I sincerely hope that the OP and Irishhosta manage to work this out in the background.

On a separate note: I would also be very offended if a seller backed out of a previously agreed upon price. Sellers should honor their commitments and it seems as though this one did not. |
