Huh? Honoring the sale is unfortunate? IMO the prevailing attitude seems to be making excuses and irresponsibility. Seems there's an entire sector of our population that doesn't believe in consequences for one's actions.

There's insurance for this; called Errors and Omissions. If Probstein doesn't have it, then he's s*** out of luck. The buyer should demand the card at that price.

To me it is a question of integrity and honor. When an obvious pricing error is made, you don't try to take advantage of the person or business. My father taught me that when he was buying a pool table. When the clerk rang it up, the total came up much less than it was actually supposed to be. He pointed out the error and paid the correct amount. I believe that when you treat others right, they will do the same to you. I certainly would understand in this situation and wouldn't try to get a 1250 card for 250.

I disagree with the above. Probstein is big enough seller that EBay won't do anything. EBay wouldn't do anything for me when I won an auction cheap and the seller refused to send the item. As has been pointed out, that is a completely different situation, but EBay can't force them to ship the card.
