Al, did you pay the asking price for the card? If so, then after you sent payment, someone offered to pay more and that offer was accepted? Seems wrong to me. Was the asking price ridiculously low and the seller realized it after the fact? Still seems wrong if that's the case but then not as surprising.

Person A offers to sell a card.
Person B offers to buy it.
Person A asks for Friends and Family.
Person B makes payment via F&F.
Person C gets involved and offers more money.
Person A refunds person B and sells the card to person C.

My two cents:

Person A went back on their word and should not be trusted.

Person C is an opportunistic weasel and should not be trusted.

I just wonder why so many people have to bump their threads to update us all when they sell an item. Bumping an item above people still actually trying to sell something is a BLEEP move when you are just bumping to post SOLD.

Agreed, I just edit and put "SOLD FOR MORE ON EBAY". Which is inherently the case.

FYI, I am told by one of the involved parties that this situation is all worked out and the situation has been made right. We have some good members on the forum.

I don’t agree. I think it’s a thoughtful move to give other board members a heads up not to waste time on it because it’s been sold. I’ve had people message me years after something was listed inquiring if it still available. I think it’s the right think to post — once — SOLD.

Well, people can (and should) just edit their post to include "Sold" in the title and body, just edit the existing listing. Making a new comment that bumps the post up is not necessary and dumb.
