What does he have to gain? Well, as an Ignorant seller who’s not sure of what a card is worth, he has quite a bit to gain by posturing a deal, then cancelling it when he realizes its not in his favor. You feel this is admirable? Sorry, I disagree
For Example: If I offer an asset for sale for $1 million and it sells in 15 minutes, as this card did.....well, oh shit, maybe I made a mistake?
Ethically, Can/should I just be able to cancel the deal and sell elsewhere/later-date???
Sorry, I don’t see it that way
Therefore, Feels like (IS) a SCAMMER to me

I'm going to back off my comments supporting seller a bit knowing this additional info. I thought there was a typo or something in his listing - that's the mistake I thought we were talking about - not that he listed something, researched it more a couple hours after it was sold and paid for and THEN decided to back out of the deal and cancel the transaction. While I can appreciate that he kicked down a 20-spot, IMO the right thing to do would be to follow-through with the transaction, even if it meant taking a 200$ equity loss on it. Gotta do the research before you post. That said, and perhaps it's mearly a linguistics issue, I dont necessarily think that "scammer" is the right word. But it's 100% bad form to back out of a deal you made because you decide to research it later. I think buyer's case could've been better articulated in this thread rather than the fury and aggressive words, but as far as the deal is concerned, buyer is right to be pissed off.
