Robert,

How about posting the item number of the sold Koufax? I have received a couple of PMs doubting that you sold one last night and I think you would want to set the record straight.

NP....I have no idea why members would doubt what I say is the truth. Why would I NOT want to sell a card?? I am in the business of selling cards!

LINK TO THE AUCTION

Ended: Jun 02, 2014 00:38:55 PDT

I think that's 3:38 AM EST (correct me if I'm wrong), but it looks like Bobby is telling the truth.

I think no one is to blame, it's just unfortunate. If I agree to a sale on the BST forum, I'm not taking down my listing that minute (especially with this board's reputation of reneging). I mean what can you do? The guy bought the card at 3:30 in the morning the night after to agreeing to a sale.

Not only this, but at $65 minus the $6.50 in fees and $2+ in shipping, Bobby did lose money. I think that if the email was worded a little different (as in, Sorry dude, I screwed up and sold this on ebay also. I forgot to take it down. Here is the link & I hope you understand.) Craig seems like a reasonable guy & I don't want to speak for him, but it seems like he would have understood. I think how it played out did seem shady. I've bought/sold with Bobby before so I know he's a good guy also.

That sounds like he didn't lose any money. The forum price was $58 and the price for the card on Ebay minus the fees mentioned was $58.50.

I mean, I guess if we're getting real technical it comes out to $8.04 worth of fees.

$65.00 x 9% ebay fees = $5.85
$65.00 x 2.9% paypal fees + $.30 = $2.19

The money doesn't matter. The whole situation was just unfortunate and the message written could have been done better.

As previously stated, the issue isn't about the amount he sold it for and whether it was higher or lower than we agreed upon. The issue is that he and I agreed that I would pay him $58 and wait until today to pay him. He later stated that he forgot to increase the price on his eBay auction and meanwhile it sold overnight. Had he told me this originally, I wouldn't have said anything publicly about it. But for him to say after we had an agreement..

"Sorry Craig....the Koufax sold on another site last night. I don't pull cards down until I actually have the money in hand. If it is any consolation, it sold for more money...I was actually wholesaling the cards for Net54 members."

...well, the whole thing just hit me wrong. After hearing the whole story from him, I do believe he made an honest mistake but his communications to me were not what I would expect from someone who has a great reputation as a seller. I do accept his apology, but still feel that card should be mine!

Oh well, anyone have a 1960 Topps Koufax PSA 6 that they want to sell to me for $58? LOL!

You get charged 9% Ebay fees Jason? They are charging me 10%. I thought they charged EVERYONE 10%? If you are paying 9%, care to share? Every little bit helps, especially with the profit margins are so low....

The Ebay fee was $6.50, and the Paypal fee was $2.19, so I actually netted $56.31 compared to the $58 Craig was going to pay me. That is irrelevant though. I would much rather sell it to a board member than let Greedbay nickle and dime me to death like they have for years. I can spend a whole different thread just talking about all I see wrong with that company.

Same shady crap happened to me in February by a seller on these boards, only difference is I didn't receive nearly the support Craig Parker's getting.

Bottom line is if you agree with someone on a price remove the listing everywhere else.

In fact, the seller should contact the ebay buyer and explain that the listing was still up in error and that they'll get a full refund if they already paid and complete the transaction with the original buyer, Craig Parker in this instance.

A few cents either way is no big deal. I was just pointing out what seemed like fuzzy math.
