"Situation" with a dealer need your take....

Well it's important to note that here in USA you can't sign away your UCC rights, so if they have a policy that violates the UCC and you agree to that policy, it doesn't matter it's unenforceable. If they consider the contract formed upon receipt of email stating item has shipped, then they violated their own policy AND most likely the UCC by rerouting the shipment back to them.

Hi Guys:

Sorry, I was away for the long week end.

Thanks for your input. Don't know yet what will happen, but I will keep you all informed going forward.

Any thoughts from others?

Tell him the offer stands as it is now, irregardless of grade. Once the grade comes back, just like he reserves the right to raise the price, tell him, you reserve the right to lower your offer. Put the ball in his court.

:PS - if he thinks you are desperate, he may raise the price anyway. You should put yourself in the frame of mind to walk away.

I guess I'm confused. Guy buys the card for sale, the dealer should honor it, bottom line. Do not understand anyone making excuses or taking the side of the dealer.....pretty cut and dry to me.

On this I agree with BobbyW. Exactly how you should approach it. I honestly feel the dealer should honor the sale price if whiteymet is willing to wait until it is returned from grading. I would possibly inquire if i paid the grading fee on top of the asking price would he commit to the sale right now regardless of grade, this only if i felt i really needed the crd or thought the price plus grading was still very reasonable, but I would understand one just wanting to hold their ground on the initial pricing.
