[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 1932250, member: 36230"]Is someone putting a gun to your head? I am guessing not, so you don't "[I]have[/I]" to do anything and instead "[I]choose"[/I] to "[I]waste"[/I] your time (your words, not mine). Just a crazy thought, but by doing you homework before listing perhaps? As for taking advantage, you're asking $800, so between this and not doing your own homework, please don't speak of [I]taking advantage[/I] or play the victim here. You regularly sell on ebay, so you should already know how to play the game. You shouldn't, but then why are you asking $800? It seems to me that you're all for not having one put over on you, but maybe it's not so bad if you're not on the receiving end. Then why not just throw it out there in an auction format and let the card fall where they may instead of this.... [I]"highest offer takes at noon on the last day..... if you are out bid I will contact you and let you know so you may counter their offer if you like."[/I] I think his only point was that "[I]a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush[/I]", but I could be wrong. Please understand that I don't care what you ask or make on the deal. If it's worth and you can get your asking price, all the power to you, but please... don't squawk about someone possibly trying to take advantage of you, and then basically admit that you believe it's worth nowhere near what you're asking.[/QUOTE]
