Yes, I'm trying to buy a card that I simply can't afford unless I sell some of these cards. But I absolutely don't want to sell these cards unless I win the card in the Mastro auction. And I don't want to bid in Mastro's auction unless I have some sense that my cards will bring me roughly enough money. I'm not asking anyone to commit to buying anything, so I know there is some risk that potential buyers won't follow through on their offers. But that's a risk I'm taking.

Leon, if there is anything wrong with this, feel free to shut it down. But I don't see what's wrong. Lots of other people take offers on their cards and they are free to accept or reject the offers for any reason at all. I'm just telling everyone upfront that I might choose to reject all offers, and I'm telling them why. Maybe I said too much in my post and just should have solicited offers without further comment.
