I have had a three years worth of smooth deals on the BST as both a buyer, trader and a seller. The deals have ranged between $10 and $4000 and all good. It hasn't mattered if it was a beater hoarder, family member of a player, rarity collector, board runner, or folks that are just out to ruin humanity and everyone in betwixt.
One thing I would mention to sellers and buyers of lots that include cards of some value, would be to set a price for each of the cards in the deal that add up to your total. This way, if a return is needed you have agreed up front on the value of the cards. As Blair mentioned above, we had a one card return in one of our package deals, but we had a (ballpark) set price for each of the cards in the lot, so the was no question about how much we should return for the one card in the lot. I could see how that could be an issue with a package deal and there is a card in question of considerable value.
There have been a couple "your price is off" comments, but that is the way it goes when buying or selling things you don't see very often, so no skin off my back on those either, just a matter of demand and supply and who needs something when!
I have made a couple bucks, broke even, helped folks out, and been crushed, but all in the good fun of cardboard!
Laying low for now,
Bob
