What would be proper etiquette on contacting a Set Registry member before …..

Treetop

I have reached out to a party who has a set on the registry to see if he would be interested in a card a friend of mine has for sell and have yet to hear back. Its been almost 4 days and have not heard back. How long would it be proper to wait before you make the offer to someone else on the registry?

Thanks!

I would say that you waited long enough. If the person really wanted the card they would have responded by now unless they are on vacation or something like that.

I concur. Spread the word.

3 or 4 days is a more than gracious exclusivity courtesy.

I agree with everyone else. You gave a reasonable amount of time and, if I was to contact someone 4 days after an offer was made to me, I would not expect that they held the card for me without offering it to someone else. If you still don't sell it and he finally gets back to you because he was on vacation or something fine, but no one would or should expect you to wait that long to make an offer to someone else.

Good luck with the sale.

I agree with the above members.

thanks guys for your input. I'm still leaning toward a week, but getting anxious (along with my friend) and want to send offer to another today at day 4 like you all have suggested.

The market for ultra high grade vintage can be so fragile. don't want any disgruntled potential buyers.... so I think I'll wait it out and contact another registry member at one week.
