There isn't a rule per se'. But when a seller takes the price down he doesn't mean for another member to post it. And I had a poorly written sentence. It should have said if you think it's ok, it's your prerogative, but it's not ok to me.

I figured that's what you meant. And since there is no official rule regarding removing prices from the bst I feel there should also be no rule against quoting listings so prices can't later be deleted. Not a huge deal I suppose, but I just find it annoying when asking prices get deleted and felt Jake was helping out the community by making sure that information stayed available.

I know that on a forum like this one, it seems like it’s ok to know what exact amount everyone pays for a transaction. But honestly, it’s just a public place to sell that’s not an AH or eBay, for obvious reasons. I don’t believe simply being an N54 member gives any of us the privilege to know what goes on inside every BST sale that occurs. eBay sold data and VCP gives enough up-to-date info to ballpark any card. I bought this Green Cobb from Pete, who is top notch and professional, and provides great insight into the hobby in his posts, as do others.
All else I can say is thanks Pete for great centered Green Cobb..

Congrats on the pick up Tom. Beautiful card!

I just thoroughly checked this thread and I am convinced that the card sold for just under $110,000.

Nor was it ok with me. It’s not Jakes or any other members decision/call to interfere with another members bst auction which isn’t theirs. It’s a very slippery slope.

I know of many others here who feel the same way as I, with Leon being one of them. Thank you for that Leon!
