This certainly has taken a turn. I've also been one where I've had the greed or jealousy of others ruin friendships. 10k could be just a few bucks for some but will certainly be a comeuppance for Josh. I don't think it would be worth ruining a relationship with what appears to be a friend and mentor over 10k, or some baseball card. Sure, you might have gotten the drop on him after he posted a card 2 months prior and a sale was made, but plenty of times here posters have advised the seller they had made a mistake or error. I think the only time it didn't happen was that Cobb Fielding postcard someone got relatively cheap. Dozens of times it's happened to me on ebay where sellers claim a pricing error, and once a "friend" learned about my buy it now and offered more money to the seller.
there is just nothing you can do.
To take the moral high ground and say "a friend should consummate the deal" should.really look in the mirror and ask what a friend is. Start with yourself. Even if you get a full price offer, you still don't need to sell. Just like house, nobody can enforce a sale. You're barking up the wrong tree if you are trying to bully or intimidate the counselor by going on and on.
Now where is that 🍿
