I've been on both ends of this. I don't mind it. I give deals to board members and I hope to get deals in return. Sometimes the member will turn the item for a profit, and sometimes I will do the same. I don't mind it too much. I know what I can get for something. Often I choose to go the forum route, not because I think I can get the most, but because I enjoy dealing with forum members, I hate the hassle ebay can sometime bring and I can do quick transactions. I don't mind people turning a profit off of me.

I am much more insulted when someone is constantly over pricing their cards and then sends you a low ball offer when you're trying to sell your card.

It's happened to me before and I have better things to do with my time than being ticked off about it. Once it leaves my hands, no longer my card so I do not care.

Getting mad is not productive, but honesty is.

If you are a collector and I know that, then I don't care even you collect flippers.



But if you are a flipper and I don't know that, I'd rather see your footwear first before, then we can deal with the rest. Just because you flip cards doesn't make you a bad person.



I rest my case.

James, I feel the same way that you do. If I can make a few bucks and the buyer can make a few bucks then hopefully we can do some more business.

Default makes you mad.......

I don't like the dishonesty that occurs at times as mentioned above.
The manipulation and maneuvering to get a lower price bothers me as well.
Hopefully, I'm getting wiser from the experiences rather than mad.
Please note the word 'hopefully.'

Frank B, I've been amazed at your collection of flippers, planes and other photographs.
Retirement must be quite interesting for you.
all the best,
barry

If I am happy with the price and the buyer is happy with the price great transaction. If the buyer sells it for 10x more good for them. Everyone
wants to get items as cheap as possible but don't play the it's for my collection card and then sell it
