Well thank goodness for that Tom at least Sean is still willing to make you an offer and give you insight.....so I guess you have that going for you huh?

I'm with Peter I don't see the big deal he got offers and may have even gotten low ball offers welcome to the hobby...I would just let it roll off your shoulders Tom and keep enjoying what you can of the hobby. Hope all works out for you in the end. Always hate to see folks having bad times.

Cheers,

John

Hi John,
I usually agree with you but I am going to respectfully disagree with part of this. I suppose it is alright to make low ball offers, but there is a time and a place for everything. It wouldn't be good form to show up at a funeral and ask the grieving widow what she will be doing with her husband's collection. A decent human being would see that Tom is going through a very difficult time, and might look for a more tactful way to approach him. It's just a matter of good common sense, I guess.

But the guy who was angry because he lost out on a 15K deal is nothing more than hobby pond scum. Who told him he was going to get the card? He never even communicated with Tom. No way to justify that one. You can't write off every rude yahoo and say it's just business.
