I think the issue is that when you receive an offer that meets, or exceeds your sale price, there should be an obligation to sell it for that originally listed amount...

Now, I'm not saying that this is the case here. BUT what happens often is that someone submits an offer that may be more just in case they saw it late and someone had already messaged at the asking price.

The way I see it, it should be sold to the FIRST person that offered $200 or more, and not any higher after the fact offers.. Since a SALE price was listed, it should be first come, first serve..

While I don't necessarily agree with how this one has been handled. There did appear to be some unexplained horseplay, where some members somehow turned this into a public auction. So to an extent, if the new higher price is partially attributed to a bit of anger or frustration with the lack of seriousness. Then I get it...

I hope nobody gets rubbed the wrong way by anything I just said. I'm honestly not passing judgment or trying to insinuate that anyone's in the wrong. Just state an unbiased opinion, with no interest in the card..
