To me, the only legitimate complaint is when the buyer lies to the seller.

Net54 feels more like a community to me than a trading platform. In fact, I find this to be its most endearing attribute.

People who treat it like a community are more inclined (in my opinion) to feel slighted when another member uses the site as a means to flip cards for a quick profit.

Early during my time here, there was a T206 Titus for sale on the BST. The seller didn't realize the card had risen dramatically in value. Consequently, their asking price was roughly 15% of the going rate at the time.

That BST thread turned into a discussion which I found fascinating. Quite a few members voiced opinions very similar to what I've read here.

Default How about when….

You post something, it’s been up for 15 minutes, and someone you’ve never dealt with asks for a 35 to 40 percent discount. Really?

I simply reply with, "sorry, no."

Please don't take this anyway except one more opinion. If I have something up on the BST for 300 and a newer guy offers 175, I am not offended. I would probably make a counteroffer.

every thread should...
