I had no idea of your contacts with him. . I emailed him from my email off of net54 If the card is no big deal, why give it a second thought?

I posted ill take it to show that i paid listing price and to avoid anyone else making an offer and that was the first time i saw your 'pm sent'. . I had already agreed with him via email earlier as he told you. Maybe you should post ill take it' if you are paying asking price.

As i said, after i bought the card i actually saw your PM when i was posting ill take it and asked him how close did you go to asking price. What did you offer by the way. I assumed you offered less than asking price and then after you saw my ill take it, you told me to get in line because maybe then you offered Asking price.

I also like to post ill take it when i didnt see it listed that the card had sold. I already bought the card. I didnt know PM sent means you have wait in line by the way, even though i didnt see it when i was communicating via email and off the net54 site.

again so the card is no big deal yet you bring this up? I really dont think anyone on net54 thinks what i did was wrong at all.

You cant say get in line and offer asking price after i say 'ill take it' People usually post ill take it takes precedence over ongoing negotiations. Sorry for saying ill take it while you were trying to negotiate to get the card for less. Easy to say know you were willing to go to asking price after the card is sold.

Bottom line- You are in negotiations and not offering asking price, and i pay asking price and this card doesnt matter. Am i really a bad guy for this?


I also dont see why you would put this on my b/s/t thread. The fact i paid asking on that psa 4 jackie which is above VCP that calvindog loves to cite (except for his own cards) does show the respect i have for the card and the reason i wanted to sell my 5 since i got a 4 that would be cheaper to hold

Holy cow....you sure added a whole lot after I was replying.

IF a seller states the first "I'll take it" supercedes all other inquiries or negotiations then by all means "go for it". But if a seller does not state that, then I would offer the common decency to the person who replied before me to get first dibs. That's just me.

Next time I will just say I'll take it because I know you're lurking out there.

Maybe I should have just started my own thread on the main board. I'll do that next time. Thanks for the advice.
