Interesting dilemma: liquidation percent off?

Yeah, I figured it was a person interested in opening their own shop, and looking for inventory they could just keep my pricing on and so whatever discount they negotiated would be their profit margin as well.

Interesting thing is that these offers came over multiple days. I had no problem not selling at a steep discount, since these are solid cards and Destin has new vacationers/customers every week during the summer. I sold $500 in smaller priced cards ($3-99 each) the following day after the last offer was not taken. So they'll all sell over time. No reason to liquidate in my case.

John, I think both of your offers were good ones. And I don't think you should keep haggling. Let him walk away, he may be back. And if he waits a while your prices might creep up.

I figure if you needed quick cash you'd have already sent another offer before posting here.

At least you still have the cards at the booth, it's gonna be a busy summer, you may well sell them for more this summer.

If I had a dollar for every tire-kicker I've dealt with I'd be retired right now. It even happens in my law practice. A client is eager as hell to get a lawsuit going until I ask for a retainer and then...crickets.

You're better off having that guy just move on. Thought he was a big shot, gonna take the rubes for their cards . Yeah, that worked out well. Guess he forgot about the information superhighway.

I just want to know one thing... Where is this store located?????
I was down there last Xmas, and would of loved to visit and bought items.

Smith's antique mall, Highway 98 at Holiday. We're starting to get card shows back in the area. There was one two weeks ago in PCB and one June 25 in Milton (near Pensacola).
