Subjective semantics at that...

Maybe we should start paying after we've received the card?

As far as I'm concerned, when I pay someone for a card - I'm the new owner. The next step is that they ship it to the new owner.


I'm kind of tired of arguing now, like Forrest Gump when he just stops running.

You make a good point t206hound, but like I said - they are subjective semantics, not universally defined. Again - even the fact that I feel that they are subjective is subjective.
