Ebay seller scam story-Paul Slapnicker Pauld49 BEWARE

[Exhibitman]

With all the scammers out there in this scam culture of ours, when someone you don't know gives you a story trying to get stuff from you, the only safe response is "Wait, wait...Nope, just decided I don't care." Some examples:

"I am collecting on a limited budget."
--Response: "I'm sorry to hear that. The price is still the same."

"It is for my personal collection."
--Response: "What you do with the card after you buy it is your own business. The price is still the same."

"I am buying this for my ___"
--Response: "That's very nice of you, but I don't know the kid, so the price is still the same."

"I saw one last week for less money."
--Response: "Then you should have grabbed that one. The price is still the same."

"Can you do any better on this?
--Response: "Probably, but the price is still the same."

And last but not least: "You're a real ______!"
--Response: "You may be right about that. The price is still the same."

It’s sad but I learned my lesson. The old buying for my grandsons and I’m on the social security budget got me. Glad I didn’t loose money, just time fighting with PayPal.

If kindness is my weakness, I guess I can live with it.

This reminds me of a classic (NSFW) movie scene:

I only sell on ebay anymore. Facebook has all scammers. People think fake cards are reprints. Not true guys. Plus the fact is people selling on facebook are the scammers.They say mint condition HAHA more like fair condition. A guy in Kenner does that.

More fake news. I never claimed these cards were mint. I actually stated poor to fair.

You have made a great point I’m done. I will let the sharks continue.

Hey Slapsticker, is it possible you have a local sasquatch that periodically rifles through your mail and may have initially taken these cards (only to later return them) so that you were confused at first and blamed the seller for not sending them?? Perhaps that's how they were available for you to resell almost immediately after "finding" them?

Just trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here Pinsmacker....
