Purchasing a card in installments

[bobbyw8469]

I did it with a rare comic once (Spiderman #2), and it worked out great. I did it with a card once for someone I knew well. He backed out of the deal (I was thankful, because I regretted selling the card), and was refunded. That is all I have to add on this.

Have done it both ways before and all transactions worked. Know the person you're dealing with and have set terms before the transaction is completed. A good email trail of both peoples understanding should be part of the paperwork. And I agree with Ted to hold the card till the transaction is complete. That should just be part of the agreement.

Have purchased a couple cards on installments here on the B/S/T board. Always worked out just fine for me and the seller. As a matter of fact was thinking about P Ming someone tonite about a 3 pay installment plan for an item he has up for sale.

Another reason why this site is so amazing other than the knowledge, it's the peoples' characters. I purchased a lot of 6 cards for a high dollar amount from Mike Navarro on here (hi Mike), and he is such a class act, that because of the dollar amount, Mike gave me time to sell my cards and pay him monthly payments without interest or anything so that I can get these cards. That was so useful, and I'm so grateful to him in allowing me to do that, because I was ecstatic in getting those cards, and was even able to pay him off sooner.

I wouldn't mind it, just have both parties agree, and set a play, ie, 4 payments every other Friday etc.
