My take has always been the owner can ask whatever he/she wants, and the buyer can choose to spend their money anywhere they choose. Getting mad about it is silly.

I’ve seen people at card shows on both sides of the table get upset at either low offers or high prices. If a buyer makes a low offer, the seller has the right to say no. If a seller has high prices, the buyer has a right to not purchase. It’s business, and nothing more. No need to be offended.

Useful site if you need to see a good scan of the back of a card as Cliff noted above ( same for COMC)

He does exist, and I personally found Hadley's book The Bubble Gum Card War: The Great Topps and Bowman sets 1948 -1955 an interesting read

It's not that black and white. If someone offers $10 for a $50 card at a show, the person receiving the offer might perceive it as "does this person think I'm that clueless about this card's worth?", or see it as someone trying to pull one over on them.

While there's no point in getting upset or taking offense, it's easy to see how someone could.

As long as there are people out there willing to pay his prices he will not change his format. I am sure if he had no sales for a few months he might reconsider his business plan.

Couldn't agree more. I never understood "Their offer was insulting" Your ugly and your mother dresses you funny is an insult. An offer is a number. Never been insulted by a number.

I am not a fan o Dean's Cards but posting his prices versus others is a no no. It is like you selling a card on this site and others knocking you because of the price.
