Default Anyone know yepbg on eBay? Are they net54 member?

If anyone knows this eBay seller and has an email address or net54 handle, I'd appreciate the info. Thanks

Ryan

Everybody knows him, or at least knows "of" him, lol. I don't know if he was ever on the board or not. You can always use "contact seller" on e-bay, unless of coarse you are trying to buy off e-bay. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply. Trying to buy off eBay. His prices are a total joke (beyond silly high), but he has something I could use and I am hoping the guy is reasonable off eBay.

It seems that he recently lowered all his prices by 35%.

Good read, thank you for the link. Well, yepbg/Brian, if you are indeed a member here, I would be interested in discussing about 5-6 cards you have listed on eBay - I would buy the lot and don't want to make an offer on a single item. Please contact me here by PM or at email (contained in my stats).

Looks like he hasn't been on here in a while. You may want to email him on eBay and ask him to check his n54 pm's. He is on that list of eBay dealers that are out of their minds.

He is not easy to deal with I made him a decent offer on a couple cards with no reply the next time he re-listed the cards he jacked the price up another couple hundred dollars. I think his cards are for show only.

I've offered him 20% above all previously recorded sales and got nowhere. Good luck!

Now some of them are only 100% overpriced. Others are still many multiples higher than anyone has paid in recent times ... well, anyone with any sense.

Why people even consider buying from that guy is beyond me. I got a PSA 2 1953 Mickey Mantle #82. You can have it for $10,000.

I've never understood the posts that criticize an Ebay or lister's seller's asking price. I would ask $1,000,000 for a 1964 Mantle if that's the cash it would take me to part with it. If it offends you, move on. Buy the 1964 Mantle from the other guy for $125, but don't complain about an individual who paid to list his.

I disagree. We criticize buyers that make ridiculous low ball offers, so why not a seller with ridiculously high BINs? What's the difference?

I understand it. Ebay used to be more of a marketplace instead of a museum. When I used the term "marketplace," I am not talking about stealing a card for half its value or even BINs priced at something close to market value. But there are so many listings on eBay that will never sell because they are priced many times above market value.

It gets tiresome to see the exact same cards from the same sellers listed on eBay for years.

PWCC gets hammered on here frequently -- and the criticisms about retractions and shill bidding with PWCC are absolutely justified. But one of the main reasons PWCC has such a huge following is because much of eBay is nothing but a museum now.

Default I agree with John

Some of you guys have gotten laughably lazy. You want it so easy type in ebay search and boom all that pops up is cheaply priced cards you want. It is not very hard to scroll past something you feel is priced to high. What's that take a fraction of a second. We used to have to drive to shows, shops, etc then search through stacks and stacks of overpriced beaters to find a diamond. It is still far easier scrolling on the computer than it used to be finding material. Having to put a little effort into finding something is not a big deal and should actually make it a little more rewarding when you do grab something. I know its easier to complain about the big bad card dealer.

And if we're being honest about it, complaining is fun.

If bitching, complaining, venting, and flat out being outraged were outlawed we could shut the Internet down tomorrow.

At least they are priced. One pet peeve at a show is seeing the one diamond, waiting around to ask a price, and then being met with a ridiculous museum piece number....show after show......after show.

Has massive amounts of stuff for sale at major shows. Has more tables of stuff than anyone. Is not in it for show only. I think if you meet him at a show might do better.

Despite all the good advice they get here, and all the threads about them here, people like Levi and Dean and Yep seem to just stay out there doing their thing....for years. They just won't listen to reason

My earlier comment wasn't a complaint, just a fact to provide context for the OP. I don't fault him for his model, it's either: 1.) working or 2.) he has zero need to sell the cards and these are just the "what it would take" prices. Either way, good for him. He's got a lot of nice stuff and it wouldn't surprise me that he gets sales by people simply wearing themselves down; wanting a card and not being able to find it anywhere else over a prolonged period of time and just giving in.

Not to beat a dead horse, but
(1) yes, he has nice stuff and
(2) I doubt there are many situations where he has a card that you can't find somewhere else.

In the last few years I have bought maybe 4 or 5 things that are rare enough that they never show up anywhere. For those, sometimes you need to throw caution to the wind.

I agree with you, I haven't bought from him. I'm simply saying I believe there's an equation that exists that separates everyone and we each have our own number.

Disposable income / patience = yepbg sales

Peter— I think Yepdog, Dean and Levi have kept their prices high all these years just to tick people here off. Maybe that is the business plan.

I just purchased a great card from yepbg. He was solid in the transaction. I offered him a price and he offered back my price with clarification on the card. He could have just accepted but he didn’t.

I hate it when sellers mark stuff up and try to run a business. Sucks. These guys should sell stuff way below market price. Isn’t that how every business works?

I also have made offers that were accepted and never had an issue. Some prices are high (read;most) but he will deal and is a good seller.

There is a difference between being high and being obscene. But he does what works for him. And with the market increasing anyway, all his cards went up by default. Although I am sure he floated his markup right along with it.

I realize that you are being sarcastic. Sellers marking stuff up to make a profit is how business works. Marking stuff up 400-600% of market value is a bit much. The card below normally sells for $150-170. I think $750 is a little more than ridiculous.

What really cracks me up is how some of the same people who rail against the Probsteins and Yepbgs of the world on this page then show up on BST and ask $800 for something they bought last December for $399.

I do like how someone won't give me $10 more than what I paid for a raw card that he needs for his collection, because I'm not entitled to get ANYTHING, but once I get it graded, I wind up selling it for $50 more than I was asking for from the raw guy.

Who cares what someone paid for something, I don't. (rhetorical question to me ) If I think it's a good value I am going to buy it at their price, or whatever we negotiate, regardless if they paid $1 or more. I don't base my value on their buy price. I guess some do but I don't.
If someone asks me what I paid for something I am selling I generally tell them $1.

This seller has 3 Grover Hartley cards, 2 of which I need for my PC, but his prices are exorbitant. It's quite annoying.

I just checked on ebay, he sure has sold a lot of cards this month and many with best offer accepted. The way people were posting on here, I thought maybe he never sold a card.

Well, sort of agree. . . .

If hundreds of people considered a recent Heritage auction and the selling price was $1000, I sort of think the market has spoken and right now informed people value it (right now) at $1000. I'm not saying I won't pay $1200 or maybe $1500 for it, but I do think what others have recently paid is an important thing to know and highly relevant.

Ah now see I'm confusing the issue.

What someone paid for it is irrelevant. I agree. That's their issue.

I confused the discussion.

Recent sales is something different.

Never mind.
