I may have been a bit harsh in how I put it, but I've had a lousy week so far and this hasn't made it any better.
And for all of you who think it's ok, go ahead and have that opinion.
But the next time you're bitching about shills or cards sold with bad scans and glowing terms, or trimmed Johnson T206s where the trimming is buried in the description, or any of the "grandpas attic" reprints....... Just remember you're no better than those sellers.

I think I can safely say the overwhelming majority of the board has your back on your thoughts. I got a PM from Chris (ATX840 above) last night. My guess is that he has had some changing of heart in that situation. Maybe our thoughts do matter.
And also, I do agree with Tony above too. That being said I just will never make an offer on a card that already has a bid on it. If there are no bids I will ask about a BIN, but otherwise, I just won't do it. Someone else can and they can be the "better" collector for it, if that is how they feel. regards
