If I'm offering below list I'll just post "pm sent" and assume the card is fair game until the seller comes to a deal with me or another member.

Phil, what if someone PM'd the seller? It wouldn't be known to anyone but the seller. If the BST ad indicates "first person that posts I'll take it, gets it", then that would seem to make it unambiguous? Perhaps that should be a thing. The first person to post "I'll take it" in the thread should be first in line (assuming they're not trying to negotiate a lower price).

This is very true. I've had MANY transactions with buying, selling, and trading and have never had an issue.
