This Net54er would have taken a hike after he raised his original price by 60%.

Default I voted

I voted to request a return and wait. I have been waiting since I started collecting for a few types, so waiting a few years should be a cake walk. That being said, I know I would probably want the card too, Bob, so I am right there with you, but alas, I think I would wait. Or of course you could request a partial refund, while at the same time giving the seller the opportunity to suggest a remedy too?

oh yeah, I don't like the 60% increase either..

Ups the price after and agreed upon price? Return it.

I chose to request a return, if one finally came around there will be another. Please keep us updated on the final outcome, I'd love to find out how the seller handled this situation (unless you choose to keep it, of course).

Sincerely, Clayton

I also voted to request a return, but I'm guessing that if we're dealing with someone who would jack the price up by any amount let alone 60% after a deal was struck then the return request would likely have the chances of a snowball in Hell.

If it's the "last" card in the set...I'd chalk it up to lesson learned...and move on. You seem to have other Grade A cards in your collection...so what's 1 more?

I'd just let it go.

But then, I wouldn't be asking to buy it off Ebay anyway so I wouldn't be in that sort of spot. Karma?
