Thanks, I'll start browsing threads

The lack of concern or effort to help bothered me way more than $73.

Again, we clearly have different communication styles. I opened a case in order to reach a resolution quickly. Buyers have done this to me as a seller as well, and I don't what other information I would need to solicit from them as a seller. Apologies again is this offended you.

I really don't like it either and really don't appreciate the terribly negative assumptions you and others in this thread have made about me. I love this hobby and have made tons of friends in it. I'm not a perfect person or overly empathic, but definitely would have expressed empathy if it was a larger loss (>$100).

Done, thanks for picking an excellent organization.

Please send me the link when you do. I would love if this card eventually turns up!
