bring down the value of the house versus sales price versus cost of the pool....mantles seem to go up.

That feedback will be removed. Never received payment from that guy. Giving
the card back to the owner and telling him to use an auction house instead.


thats what he emailed me..

For 20k there should be some way to do the deal in person. I did it with a 20k ebay deal not too long ago. I got a board member near where the seller was to take the guy a big pile of cash. It worked well. I have done it several times with a bit smaller amounts but on deals I wanted to be safer on. All have been fine and never an issue.

You will never recoup the cost of a pool. When you try to sell, too many people will view a pool as an expense, and if potential buyers have children, a pool is more often viewed as a danger.

Repaint the house, modest landscaping, update the kitchen and bathroom hardware, and you can still have the '52 Mantle AND increase the value of your home!

How do you know he never paid, you are taking the seller's word for it? Since you trust the seller so much (who I happen to know has been involved in at least one significant card-related lawsuit), why don't you ask him why he used a fake back scan? And why he photoshopped out the missing pixel? You do know about missing pixels right?

OH I see now you are just reporting what the seller told you. Well, I would be very skeptical...
