There were a lot of bid retractions on a few things I saw but I think the story on these is correct. If some of the cards were in the 6+ range, technically, then money could have been left on the table. Like I think I said, I was outbid (my snipe didn't take) on 1 of the cards.

The last Mays card that I watched ended about 2K lower. I would say the last card is just a tad rougher but not $2000 less rougher.

I have no doubt about the sellers backstory. Never brought that into question for the record.

You may be right but I haven't changed my opinion. The other comments regarding bid retractions don't surprise me. I will be staying away from this seller. Best of luck to anyone who decides to take a shot.

a***u(3402) seems to be bidding on most or all of his cards both FB and BB.

You are slandering my business, name and reputation. That is against the law. Bring your evidence that I am shill bidding or stop slandering my name. There is no evidence because there is nothing shady going on.
If you do not stop I will take legal actions against you. I don't know anyone bidding on my items or have any control of how the bid. You are accusing me and my customers on flimsy evidence made up in your own mind. I run an honest business. Stop you have no right to slander me.

Block the bid retractor. I block ALL of mine. That one simple act could save you a ton. Unless of course, there is something nefarious going on.

PS - Looking back at the auctions, on every card that had a reasonable opening bid, bidder #3402 is the high bidder. I don't mean no harm, but that appears shady. For that reason, I will not be participating in these auctions. Bidder #3402 should have been blocked with the retraction of $350 for a card that is worth nowhere near that. He is compromising all of your auctions.

Bidder #3402 also won multiple card auctions. Looks like a 53 Paige , 52 feller 53 Bowman Campanella. Did this bidder complete the sale? Did you shipthe items to this individual?

How could anyone slander your name when it's not been exposed yet, Aun.dra STU.BBS. There is a rule concerning names and it's at the top of every page. To me it also looks like you have some shady bidders. No need to sue, it's the truth.
