Do you know the repercussions of beginning to build a bad reputation with many of the buyers who are making the quick purchases of these cards, e.g. users on NET54?

They do have the right to sell to whomever, but not whenever. Is a card yours once you purchase it, or when you receive it? If it's the latter, then why would anyone ever have to send someone a card that they purchased?

So the game becomes "sell me the card or I'll trash your name on NET 54"?




What if one of the Ebay buyers is also a NET 54 member?

For not taking it off Ebay quick enough and selling to you instead, they now get a NET54 thread in their honor, negatives, trashed DSR scores..........and the same headaches.


For the record I don't have anything to do with Dave & Adams Card World and have never bought from them as far as I can remember.

I just find this whole thing heavy-handed and kind of odd.

It seems their only crime here is having a card that two people wanted at approximately the same time, and having to make a decision which purchase to follow through on that would hurt their business the least.

I remember the good old days when you could just say "Oh, I'm sorry, it's sold", and people would go on with their lives.
