1962 / 1963 Salada - Junket Coins Question

[hcv123]

Just throwing my 2 cents in here because I hate to see such tension and bashing over something so "small" in life's larger picture.

My opinion - You both could have done a bit better.

-Theenigma - I could see 4 reals point of feeling "wronged" for not having been contacted about payment not received after verbal agreement, prior to you committing elsewhere.

4reals - Having made the mistake, I think it was reasonable to offer to "compensate" you with the 2 free coins.

I did not hear that enigma's move had anything to do with making an extra $25. It was a couple of mistakes (wrong e-mail, and not contacting you prior to offering elsewhere). We all make them.

Reasonable also to respectfully suggest the option of cancelling the other sale after the mistakes were realized.

All reasonableness and lots of respect out the window when it becomes so emotional - sorry to see you both going through it. Wishing you both better experiences.

You're correct, in the big picture it really is meaningless. I am definitely embarrassed for allowing a new board member, or any board member for that matter, make me react out of character. My pride just took over after being wronged. It really was less about the item and more about the principle. That's why I didn't accept the "free gift", I took it as though they were offering hush money and felt I was being bought out. I didn't feel like it was genuine. If I was wrong, I apologize. I felt I was doing the rest of the board a service by exposing the practices of this person, that way nobody else had to experience what I did. Ultimately, I just wish it never happened. I realize nobody on the board wants to read this kind of nonsense. I'm sorry.

If the coin in question was the Koufax [you're a Dodgers guy so I am guessing], you can pick one up on eBay for under $30 delivered in PSA 6. Not mine, I just ran across the listing.

FWIW, I had a very nice and successfull deal with the original seller of these Salada coins.

Ha! Only because someone else didn't offer more between the time your offer was accepted and the time you paid. You're one of the lucky ones I guess!

Thanks for the thoughtful search Adam, I appreciate it.
