There is a difference between the sale of a card and the closing of an auction for a card. An auction can end with a high price where there ultimately is no sale. Maybe payment was never made, maybe the card was not satisfactory and payment refunded, there are lots of ways for an auction to end with a high price and there was never a completed sale.
Maybe that is why I haven't seen as much ribbing, fewer posts to rib him about.

Re: the auctions...

Roomn8 was the first seller and piedmont150 was the first buyer on eBay in mid-January. I know of Roomn8, Daniel, so I can only assume that sale is legit, and they don't live near each other (New Hampshire and Indiana) so they can't be in cahoots.

Then a month later piedmont150 sold to me at a $60 loss, which I'm 100% sure of since PayPal I've got a PayPal record of it.

Then I posted it on eBay and two weeks later, piedmont150 won my auction.

So all three transactions had to have taken place, and money changed hands each time, so I'm guessing that piedmont150 just wanted to get his card back, even if it cost him a little extra. I can't blame the guy as I've done it myself in the past....maybe we all have.
