Hi, does anyone know if eBay seller Tywagner1223 is a board member? If so, just trying to contact him. Thanks

Good luck with that, he doesn't negotiate if that is your question. He also isn't the best about responding in general.

If it is the same person (Jeff?) I think it is he isn't a member for a variety of reasons.

Thanks for heads up guys. I received a few separate messages that maybe help explain my experience.
Still don't know the full, prior story as it may have played out here. In my case there was no disaster, no scam, and I'm out nothing, so it obviously could have been worse. But there was a frustrating lack of interest in my multiple inquiries and offers, (4-5 over a week+) which started at about 85-90% of asking and reached 95%. Once I learned of the 10% discount, I would have likely just paid his full asking... but he decided to re-list at a substantially increased asking price ($300-$400 more) over the weekend. When he finally responded to my offer with a counter offer Monday, it was at$200+ more than the full BIN asking price had been last week when I started sending messages. By then, it was Monday night, and I wanted to get the 10% coupon, so just decided to buy another card, from a seller who immediately responded to my offer with a nice counter offer. None of this was a big deal, but don't think I'll be making offers on that original card any time soon. |

I feel your frustration because I OFTEN am ignored when I ask for additional information or an additional scan...
I struggle to understand why someone who SELLS baseball cards cannot be bothered when someone else actually wants to BUY those cards... Can any of you "Grey Beards" help me out! |

I know the guy and deal with him quite a bit from 1996 through 2006 or so. Sometimes he would give great deals or straight purchase and trades. Other times he would quote super high prices. I lost contact with him directly a few years back. I have also tried to make a few deals with him on ebay and he doesn't reply. In general he is a pretty decent guy just not always easy to buy from

Sorry to revive this old thread, but I had this same experience over the weekend. I made an offer, it was immediately rejected, the BIN price was raised, and I was blocked from making another offer. I sent a message, but it was ignored.

Such a strange business model. If you want the card best to just swallow the bitter pill and hit the BIN or move on to save your sanity.

Another option- if the seller refuses to accept your offer, then get all pissed off and start sending inflammatory messages, and call the seller a long list of names. Had this happen to me a couple of months ago with an item I had listed on eBay. Naturally, I blocked him.

I've always been fair with my offers and polite in my interactions, Ty has the habit of raising the BIN after any offer. Seems strange to me. Better to hit the BIN and save yourself the frustration. |
