If I'm offering below list I'll just post "pm sent" and assume the card is fair game until the seller comes to a deal with me or another member.

I've done the same thing saying "I'll take it" and It was sold on another platform and they didn't mark it sold. Here' It's just the breaks of the game. You just move on.,BST is still a great way to buy some really nice stuff. I like it.

I agree. The BST is a great place. I have made lots of buys and sales over the last month. This buy, from there, was from 12/2017,for $2100....I still love looking at it. (I enjoy reasonably well centered cards)

I have a few 1939 Play Ball cards...Joe DiMaggio, Hank Greenberg. So far, the Ted Williams has eluded me. That one is primo!

Which raises a related point. If someone wants to complain publicly about another member/transaction, should they be required to identify it?

I don't like requirements, personally. (says the non-conformist)

And another BST purchase. Love the BST

Probably not a forum rule but a good reason to add someone to your ignore list so you don't have to see any more of their posts.

WOW Leon that is one beautiful Ted Wiliams card.

I get both sides but I think people should either work out disputes privately or, if they're going to post publicly about them, have the cojones to tell us who you're complaining about.

If someone posts a general complaint about an issue that they want to get feedback on, maybe it makes sense to not name the person publicly in case there really is no issue.

The problem here is that someone who thought they were being accused outed themselves after someone else posted a link to a thread that the OP had recently made an offer on. At that point, I think the OP should have posted that wasn't the seller he was talking about. It shouldn't have taken a week and almost 300 subsequent posts for that to happen.

Maybe someone will have a pair of cojones for sale at the Strongsville show. Or on the BST.

I didn't know that feature exists. I guess that means you wont see this post...

How does the feature work? Does it just eliminate all post entries of the person on the "ignore" list from the thread being viewed? Or did you just make that up. Oh yeah, that's right, you won't see this post...

LOL, I can't imagine any reason to have you on my ignore list.

The only way you see someone's posts when on your ignore list is if someone quotes them like you did me. So now you made everyone ignoring me read my post.

On the line with the log out icon go all the way to your left. Click on user CP. Then under settings and options you can edit your ignore list. Personally I only have one person on mine and it was because of a BST incident they are on there.
