BST Flippers

[Frankish]

People have brought up a lot of reasonable possibilities where one might sell a card or item they've recently bought. I know I've done it before if my collecting focus changed (which it has an annoying habit of doing) or if I had second thoughts about the purchase. Unless it was a sweetheart deal, I generally wouldn't bother the seller to ask for a return/refund but just take my lumps and resell it. Which brings up a point..

In a sense, I think selling at an auction house is the least annoying (to me, at least) way of dealing with it. The person might turn a profit or might end up losing out on the transaction, but they aren't really attaching a specific price to it. Seems like a very neutral way to dispose of it.

If I were one to be annoyed by these things, I think it would bother me much more to have someone buy it and then list it for 4x the price on ebay. That said, even that wouldn't bother me much. If I sell something, I try to forget about it entirely....
