Default Policing the BST a little more

Posted By: barrysloate

If you put a card up for sale on BST, that's the price. If you are looking for the highest possible offer, that's called an auction. Put it on ebay in that case. I will add however in my neighborhood, where real estate is as hot as vintage baseball cards, a buyer will agree to a seller's price on a brownstone or co-op only to find the next day that somebody offered more, and the original buyer has to up his offer or drop out. It's a miserable practice, and people hate it, but it goes on seven days a week. It's a function of having a commodity that is in very high demand. If this were instead a site selling cat litter, none of these issues would arise.
