While I had my card up momentarily I offered the card for less than I paid for it. I have never sold a card on the board to other members for more than I paid for it at any time.

Hi Tony,

Just to clarify my point (FWIW), I have no problem at all with people making money from selling cards. I am very much a capitalist. If I sold you a card on BST for $200 and you listed it the next day on BST for $400 I would not bat an eyelash or feel there was anything wrong with that.

The personal pet peeve I was referring to was using a post on the main Board to "set up" a BST post later. But as Leon pointed out, this could be perfectly legitimate in some cases - especially to obtain information, even if related to a future sale.

(BTW, I am happy to hear your work is picking up and I wish you the best - this economy has taken its toll on too many people!)

Cheers,
Blair
