That thing is f'ing awesome! Never seen it before.

"When I am ready to sell, I will sell however I want to. No one is entitled to a first shot, even my friends. If I remember, I might reach out, but honestly I make little effort. I see friends with cards I would love to have and say the same thing to them. But I never, ever expect them to ask me first. I just throw it out there. And, if I ask, and I see them selling it the next day on the BST, or elsewhere, they are still my friend. It makes no difference to me."

100% agree, Leon. No one has a right to expect anyone else to sell their stuff to anyone or on anything but their own timeline and in any manner as they choose. I didn't de-friend the guy who sold the card I wanted, I just bought the card at auction and moved on. I still have the card and the friend.
