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 just signed on to update this thread and I see that Leon beat me to it.

Yes, the buyer reached out to Leon and me, and assured me he did not offer above the seller's asking price, which he agreed would be unethical. I told him I would post this update, so that everyone would understand this speculation was inaccurate.

As Leon said, there are three sides to every story. Bottom line, this situation is resolved. All's well that ends well.

Would love to hear the reason the seller changed buyers after receiving payment if it wasn't for more money.

If you want the other parties to come on here and explain their reasoning in detail, then give us a hell yeah.

Seller decides to cancel a deal. To sell it to somebody else. For the same amount of money?

Why? As long as the situation is corrected? To me, that is what counts. Everyone makes mistakes and it's how they are handled that matters most. And I am not saying who made a mistake...I don't know and I don't care now.

Because I can't think of a reason I would do the same thing after receiving payment from someone else. Also, as discussed in several other threads, it may violate some contract law, at least according to what I remember some people posting.

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.

I see your point, but if something is going to sell it will sell.

More annoying are the posts tapping same item for 37th time and threatening, again, that said item is about to be consigned to an AH.

Not going back into the drawer this time?

My personal favorite: “I can’t believe I still have this…”
