Btw- since no one's PMd, I'll just ask straight up... Sean-- did you end up with the Chamberlain? If not, no worries... If so, that transaction annoyed me big time.. I'd been offering on that card for 9 days, then someone clearly swooped and one (or two) upped me

I have no idea what card you are talking about. No, I did not end up with this card or even make an offer on it.

If cambb did not purchase the cards, it seems to me he should not keep Sean's $90 whether or not Sean interfered with his purchase.

I view it as what I had to do to repair the situation that had arisen from my actions. I have no problem with it.

Your intent presumably was to compensate him for the incremental price he was being charged. If he did not purchase the cards, he isn't out anything, and isn't harmed.

EDIT TO ADD I wonder if we are going to hear the seller's side of this.

Being that David was the one to out the situation - and not Tony - I will refrain from posting more information. The seller was helping someone else out and got in the middle of a nasty situation - there is no burden on him to respond.

I ended up being contacted to purchase these cards (by the ACTUAL seller, not middleman) so I don't see anything wrong with him keeping the money.

Blackie, the one that offered the cards, was doing so one someone else's behalf. He has no fault here. The owner of the cards, Michael Bowe, is not a member here. He is a complete slimeball.

You have a nice way of spinning things, Sean, so they sound good to others who may read this. Yes, Michael contacted you, but only after you made your higher offer to Blackie and after you were told the cards were already sold. Blackie felt compelled to let Michael know the higher offer, but he was only the middle man.

Keep spinning things, Sean, and I'll just keep correcting you.

You definitely made an offer on on the Chamberlain by way of an "I'll take it" post. I wouldn't have suspected you of anything or asked you about this (though do I suspect someone came in and made a higher offer after mine), until I read about the Robinson/Mays story.
