Total waste of my time and total waste of time every time you post about your Cobbs. Stop talking about them.
Congrats to the new owner and the seller, whom I know to be a good dude. Sometimes it's better to pay a premium when dealing with upstanding people.

Eh.... a bit unfair ....i think people should be aware that CMIZE is biased against whatever i say so to take whatever he says with a grain of salt....... and you made some fantasy allegations ..i like how you say 'researched historical prices....do you do that when you make an offer on a psa 7 rookie Aaron?..im sure you check what one sold for 3 months ago as thats part of history......i love how you tried to fit in that you are fair with 'historical prices'.....depends what historical prices you are using......you do compare what a T206 PSA 8 goes for when you list a PSA8OC like thats very useful info... or even comparing a PSA with a SGC like they always sell real close to each other
i think a lot of sellers agree with me that if we post a price....why bother saying 'whats the lowest you can take' you already have an an asking price sitting there...if you want to make a counter, go ahead...but its not like its a lennox cobb with no price listed .....
if you just paid asking you dont have to worry about making offers and the card selling.........and by the way...you can accuse me for whatever you want...everyone knows i update my pages...when i sell a card i always list that it sold ....not sure why you make up fake scenerios........i dont think anyone will disagree i am very fast in updating listings
i never have solicited an offer if the card sold....if you are an idiot to make an offer on a card i have already posted as 'sold' for several days then maybe you need the time machine discussed in the thread....
sometimes asking price is worth it my friend.....cant always go by 3 month old historical prices....its hysterical to go by historical on 3 month old listings for some waterfront property cards..
all i did was draw attention to the same card that i had listed on net54 that was listed for 3x more and asked if that happened to anyone else...the exact card was posted on ebay so i thought it was interesting to post a comment if that had happened to anyone else......for some reason you are the only one that took offense and wanted to insult..
All i did was make a post..and CMIZE took it upon himself to attack me.....that really makes the forum fun....but no need to be a liar... being a lowballer etc i understand....or even comparing PSA 8 with PSA 8OC..or PSA 8 with an SGC 8 where everyone knows the prices arent equal .but no need to be dishonest...
remember CMIZE, how you said never to email you and you were not to email me evey again...i guess even though my post had nothing to do with you or mention you in any way, you sure took the opportunity post something negative (and untrue) about me.....
(CMIZE refused to give a price on a SGC 5 Cobb back in april....i then said i would want to pay one grade below in a PSA what the SGC was or what a SGC goes for in the same grade and not wanting to pay a PSA price of the same grade, plus i made a typo but changed it immediately ..and he was offended (though he never gave a price and i actually never gave an exact offer) and i guess now will always comment negatively on every post)
