Some of the comments on this thread are pretty surprising (and scary).
It was a simple mistake. A bidder should not profit from a listing error. I am with Superior on this one.

Its like picking sides on a team... goods guys and bad guys... Either your a low life rat or one of the good guy. Its that cut and dry. When issues like this come up, it brings the true person in alot of people out.
Bruceswar....care to actually name who the 'low life rats' are in this game....before you do, keep in mind that I was NOT one of the people that pulled the trigger on these auctions...and I MUST imagine, that since you didnt come into the fray until page 7, that you were well versed in all of this.....next time you come to a game, buy a ticket and sit down before the first pitch is thrown, otherwise you look like a cheap bastage that snuck in after the ticket takers went home

You can't comment on a thread unless you start commenting right when it starts???
My style is impetuous, my defense is impregnable !
My point is, he calls me a 'low life rat' Myqqy.....at the very least, TDN and Irishmike came right out swinging...they used fact and common sense...dont worry guys, not stirring the pot here....and Bruceswar just jumps on the bandwagon and starts slinging 'low life rats'?? Dont think you'd be too pleased either....at least get involved in the arguement, get po'd, THEN let the insults start...what he did is the equivalent of kicking a dead horse...in other words, NO GUTS
Commenting on the THREAD is all well and good, but to personally attack, thats GUTLESS...
Petard, don't worry about the personal attacks. It often shows that you have the better of the argument.

I actually interpreted Bruceswar's post differently. I thought he was saying that he was suprised how polarized the opinions were. Forum members were taking sides, either that Superior was good and the bidders bad, or Superior was bad and the bidders good. The posts on this thread do seem to reflect this.
I did win a $1 auction. I am not trying to get the coin. I am not mad at Superior. I do not expect anything from Superior. So, am I a low-life rat? I don't think Superior is the bad guy, so that must make me the bad guy.
In reading through all these posts and some of the statements made, I am now possibly blocked from some forum members auctions for even bidding on one of these $1 auctions. I think people are going a little overboard on this whole topic.

If you read the original thread titled "I just got a Deal for $1.00 LOL" or whatever it was called you will see I was very active in all of this. I made my points. So please don't tell me about buying a ticket to sit down and watch. I know all what went on. Hell I even went on to make statments about what I said, just look for a post called "Apology to Fairlaneman and others" Just some thoughts

Exactly , and in a previous post I went on to explain the who the low life rats were. It was the people who were going to try and stick it to Superior, reread and you will see.

I never once said you were a low life rat. I said the people who are going to hold Superior to it are low life rats. I have been in this debate since it all started. Look at the original thread about this. This is not a personal attack on you in anyway, but please look before you speak. Thats all. Thanks!

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
<< <i>Superior made the mistake and most bidders have been extremely generous with them. >>
The bidders are being "generous" by not trying to screw them out of valuable coins for a buck each? I'm impressed by this show of magnanimity.
Russ, NCNE

people are going to actually try to get the coin? heh. nice.
