I rarely see people helping each other out. Those stories are far and few between.

I have a "friend" that I have had dealings with for over 20 years. He had a very unique card that he knew I would like to buy. I asked him over the years to just let me know when it would come up for sale so I can first crack. Well, earlier this year, it came to auction in a major auction house. When I asked him about it, he stated "Well, I didn't want to squeeze you on price, so I just sent it to the auction house to sell". Sigh, no, you wanted to maximize all the profit and not give me the opportunity to buy.
