I agree. The way it was handled was over the top. If you don't want to deal with lowball offers, then have ebay do an automatic decline of them.

This^

Your response to him was really what started it and was simply uncalled for. Looks like he did do some "homework" and came up with $420 from an online T206 source. Whether that's really the price somebody is willing to pay or not is irrelevant, you simply should have just explained yourself in a professional manner and declined if you didn't want to sell. Or like has been mentioned, have Ebay set up for automatic offer decline if you have a bare bottom number in mind.

Dan, was the card seriously under-graded?

Did you publish your phone number and demand him to call you and or ask him if he has ever owned a jock?

Did you lowball him on the item and then when it didn’t work out come on a public chat board and slam his cards as over-graded garbage?

Did you explain that you’re most likely one of the top 5 T206 collectors of Net54?

If not those are options that you can try as well in the future vs. calling him an idiot.

Default Why?

What is it with all the name calling when an ebay issue comes up? That's the second one this week. Eveyone please relax and don't take everything so personally when your deal doesn't go just like you want it to.

How ignorant is that? Even if the listing is only worth $300, why be a FKG asshole!
Dan,
people are what they are, why? I don't have the answer. If I did, I'd be sipping pina coladas on my own island!!

Hey Danny,

Maybe you and Scott went to a ball game together sometime back.

BTW, there is an April 24 1 o'clock day game vs the Cardinals. Might be a good day for you to play hooky and come down here to catch it. It'll probably be cold but the Ketel should take care of that.

Hi Kenny! I am good with that as long as the weather looks good my friend!

I hate morons and I hate what this board has become.

The board hates me and I hate the FKG board!

Whenever you accept my $300 dollar offer from today on your Lenox.

Call me in the AM lets set a time already.

I agree with Dan grumpy or not common sense says if a card is listed for $7k you don’t offer a few hundred bucks…it is a little insulting.

Besides if the guy did the research on the t206.org site that brought him to this insane price. He could also have done or did additional research on other sites and past eBay sales and see that Lenox cards don’t sell for 3-4 hundred dollars especially hall of fame players.

Sort of like me using Google to look up T206 Wagner’s and pulling the 80k price from 15 years ago on one and offering that today on the same card. Guy didn’t look up Lenox and find only that one site and historical price I’m not buying it.

Cheers,

John

Well Andrew is selling a Wagner for $75k, so I think those prices are still relevant.
