For the record, I too, price cards that aren't for sale much higher than market value....because I don't really want to sell them. If they are for sale I either price them at market or close to market, or they don't sell. Pretty easy to understand. And lastly, of course great looking cards for the grade sell for more than less great looking cards for the grade.

i tried to have a informationless poll to get the fairest results, in which this did not occurr....which got currupted by the other kevin airing out the details...no names or details were ever going to be given around this. it turned into that the second i was forced to defend myself around why the poll existed.

As I explained before, all cards were explained as doubles or looking to get rid of to change over graded cards to PSA graded.

Never was there an indication that the cards did not want to be sold, and that I was interested in purchasing a card that the seller did not really want to part with.

Actually, you promised to explain the reason after the poll closed, which prompted Kevin's response. If he wants 5k for it then that is what that particullar example is worth to the owner. You can alway look for a different PSA 7.

I never said that i would detail who was involved or what their role was. i was simply going to explain the situation that prompted the poll. your making an assumption that i would call someone directly out as being the person i am speaking about, which was not going to be the case.

Would the other Kevin have known how "vague" you planned on being? If not he may have felt like he needed to respond.

Either way that is presumtuous.....I emailed him and told him about the poll. I never said i was doing it in mal intent, behind is back or anything else, and I told him that it was to learn what others feel is the value of the card in question.

This thing has grown to something that it never was meant to be. It was just a simple poll, with no names behind it.
