I had multiple inquiries and I accepted the first firm commitment to buy. The buyer inquired about another card and I had to decline that inquiry since another buyer had committed to that card. It is always going to be hard when there are multiple interested parties. I tried to be as fair as possible and if someone is upset I truly regret that. If people want to bash me on this it is fine, but I do want to emphasize that I am not mad at Tony. Another buyer committed literally as I was responding to his request for additional pictures. Tony was acting in good faith and I appreciate that.

Just to be clear, I was not bashing you. I misunderstood and thought you were negotiating price, if it was only at the stage of him requesting more pics, then you did nothing wrong selling. My apologies.

We were negotiating price, Jim. In every sale I've done, the first offer made always got a heads up if someone makes a better offer. I give them the option to match the price or surpass it. That's always been my method and I've been given an opportunity to up my offer on cards I've been negotiating over. Generally, people will state up front in their sale that "SOLD" or "I'll take it" trumps all negotiating. Anyway, that's how I've always operated and will continue to. Seems to be the fairest method in my opinion. I don't have any grudge or resentment. Just disappointed.

Thanks, Robert. As I said, I don't hold any grudge nor do I question your integrity. Good luck with the rest of your sales. Lots of great stuff there.
