Ebay museum day
I tried to buy quite a few cards today and every single seller refused to negotiate even at the high end of the actual market, and above. Of course we all run into this frequently, but this may be a consecutive museum record for me. Yeah, everyone's sitting on a gold mine. Right. News flash -- it ain't early 2021 still.

I've noticed that pretty much everyone with high eye-appeal key vintage cards isn't budging one bit on price. They know what they have and if you want it, it's still going to cost you a significant premium.

Given that the AH hammer prices and online auction sales have soften in many/most categories of cards, it is a bit surprising. I've noticed that same thing: an item that was selling at $300 in late 2021 at the top of the market, has closed in recent sales at around $180-$200. I offer the seller with a $325/BO listing $225, still at least $25 over the last 4 sales. His response? a counter offer at 299.99.
Sellers certainly have a right to charge what they want. But prices change quickly, and if you cling to over the moon prices, you will have your items for a long time...

One of the notorious high priced sellers on Ebay accepts my offer of a 17% discount every time I ask, card is still high priced but at least I know where is number is. He does not have the make offer button activated.
Another notorious one increases his BIN when I offer a fair price even though the make offer button is turned on. Who knows...
