Three months into the hobby, and that has quickly become the phrase that peeves me off the most. Someone who's making an offer for your card doesn't care how much you paid for it! The way I see it, cards are a lot like the stock market - if you're gonna buy/sell, understand that there is the risk of losing some money. Don't expect people to compensate for your mistakes.

Where do people get off thinking they can always get 100%+ in return for their cards? Heck, I've overpaid for cards and realized I'm gonna take a loss if I ever decide to sell it. Big deal, I enjoyed the card while I had it.

As a seller, you get what people are willing to pay for it. If you want to set a mental "reserve price" on cards you're selling, go for it. But don't tell me what you paid for it, because I couldn't care less!!!

The end.
