As long as you don't ask any questions, or mind paying top dollar for card without seeing the back, or if in an auction bidding against him on his own cards he seems to be a great person to deal with. And I can totally see why he is so upset with all the fees as it has to get frustrating paying those on your own cards.

I saw pictures on a lot of the cards on the backs, and for some, he mentioned what was wrong w the card to merit grade. I didnt want to offer him a low BIN, in case he was gonna accept it.

I have bought and sold to jed over the last few years, I have found that he will pay more than most , and has a knowledge beyound his years, I hate to see him get bashed on this web site, i have been told before by people on this website that it is rude to ask for a back scan, and why would you offer $300 for a $900 buy it now,most people would be offended by that, much less these offers of $1, to me that is kind of bad in itself

I think he said that he offered $300 less than the BIN of $900. So we're actually looking at a offer of $600. Nothing wrong with that..

Anyways, I kinda agree with you a little. While the seller's attitude is kinda rough around the edges, we really shouldn't be tearing into him the way that we are. While sharing true experiences with this seller is fine, CREATING new out of the norm experiences just to see how far the guy will go in his response is a little too much. I will admit that I've kind of enjoyed some of the responses so far though..

BTW, if you're spending your money on a card, it's NEVER rude to ask for a back scan.. The guy knows people ask for them, and is obviously annoyed by people asking for them. What should his solution be? Huh, how about providing one in the first place, so that people won't ask you for one? It's sure a better option than tearing into people for doing what you knew they were going to do all along. Also, I've never once read a seller's ME page, and I'm sure I'm not alone, so any disclaimer posted there is virtually worthless.

Provide a back scan! Problem solved! What is it? An extra .10 cents? The seller brings it on himself by not providing a back scan....escpecially on a somewhat expensive card.

Because some collectors have no dignity.

Next time orrules, I suggest you don't bring a thread back from the dead in a negative manner.

I don't think this is Jed Drinkwine...according to ebay that guy is in South Carolina...the IP address on Orrrules is Denver, CO.

Correct.

Unless he is well known on the board (and he isn't) he will need to put his name in his post, as I emailed him right after he posted...Either that or edit the comments out....regards

On my experiences on ebay, back scans were pretty common to me on valuable cards, whether the card was graded or not.
If the dealer is a jerk then move on.
There's not a thing he's selling that you can't get from
someone else. Over time he'll learn or be out of business and frustrated.

A few dealers I've met over the years are very arrogant.
Never ceases to amaze me when I see a dealer that acts like
his creased VG- minus 1972 Topps cards are made of gold
and then they wonder why the dealer next to him has so many repeat customers
while he struggles just to make dealer fee sales.
Customer service is not a mystery.

Robert

The only time I ever post the back as part of my listing is when there is a back variation (ie. t206) or if a possible bidder asks for one. If I get nasty about it I've lost a bidder forever.
