Is there people you wont buy from simply because of their attitude?

Same with people who are selling, trading or buying then you open up discussion then once an agreement is made they drop the conversation. I'm still "waiting" on a payment for an item someon promised to purchase in March. When I see the same thread pop up saying "looking to buy..." I move along and hope others do the same.
Overall I've had great deals with many members and likewise I have my favorites I enjoy buying from. Goes both ways.

yeah this is pretty much the way I am. I've been doing this 33 years and my list of "no deals" is surprisingly short considering. With the National coming up I expect to see a few. Thankfully I remember them and walk past but on occasion I still get the dealer that is soooo put out because I ask to see a card that turns out has a price tag on the BACK that is way overpriced.

Yes, there are those I will not buy from or sell to.

People will probably avoid buying from me now that I've made my feelings known concerning the awful arm of Babe Ruth's daughter. It's not my fault that she couldn't hit the broad side of a fluorescent barn, yet people would make me suffer for her shortcomings. What a world.

Absolutely. Collecting is what I do for fun/enjoyment. If I want attitude, I could just stay at work, or coach a team of 13 year olds.

Plus, mean people suck.

I wouldn't avoid buying or selling to you. I just think your comment is misplaced. She is 98 yrs old. What kind of arm should she have?

A better one. She has Hall of Fame blood running through her veins, for goodness sake.

I can't tell whether you are just trying to be funny, or if you really believe what you are saying

...hoping the former.

Maybe she should train with the Mandelbaums. Just don't pick up a TV if it's bolted to the dresser.

I think your humor is being lost on everyone, friend :/

The problem is it wasn't humor to start with and now it's deflection.
