What is wrong with getting more money?

There's nothing wrong, but if I had a friend that had a card I really wanted, I would make a fair offer, maybe even higher depending on how bad I wanted the card.

OP says he would have spent 25% more for what it went for.

You can go the AH route, there's nothing wrong with that. The problem is the friend didnt even mention he was selling the card. He didnt even start a potential pricing discussion with the friend.
