You can take your opinion and stick it. If you offer an item at a price and I accept, that's a deal and not sticking with it is dishonest.

I think this sums it up pretty well. Making mistakes and owning them builds character. Making mistakes and blaming someone else builds corruption.

Just because you can speed in your car doesn’t mean that if you get caught you don’t have to pay the two ticket. Hey all cars are made with the ability to speed. It dose t make it right.

So like I said you CAN cancel a sale but it doesn’t make it right. If you can’t trust a Business to do the right thing what does that say about the business?

Maybe IF you graduate Jr high and some how make it through high school you will have learned something.
I have never went back on a deal or canceled a sale. But I have learned it's wrong to take advantage of someone because of a simple mistake. If you think that's stupid so be it. I find your point of view as baffling as it appears you find mine.

To all those who are worried about Probstein being taken advantage of due to an honest mistake, please rest assured that he's taken advantage of all of you through no mistake of your own.

I'm not worried about probstein as much as say a non professional seller who's moving a card to cover an unexpected expense or to make ends meet. But my feeling on this issue would be the same regardless. Now if someone posted a card for a price they later learned was too low, or canceled a sale because they received a higher offer that's completely different and would show a lack of integrity in my opinion.

But that's what happened here. A professional seller listed something at a price, it sold at that price and they cancelled when they realized that price was too low.
If they cancelled before a sale that's totally ok, but the listing says "sold"

I've sold stuff for prices that I later realized were too low. Should I get to go back and rewind those sales? How long do I get? Or do I just do what I've always done, say "darn I wasn't too smart just then" and move on to whatever's next.

Now about the US and state taxes I've been paying since High school.... Who do I talk to about a refund? In USD, not Canadian...

There is of course a solution for busting a deal.
