<< <i>As a disinterested party, here's my take on the OP. Blackitalian violated ebay rules to begin with by going outside of ebay to do the deal, so he's lucky that a neg is the only thing he has to whine about. As to the price, blackitalian was the one who agreed to sell, so he has no right to complain about what he got for the item...and once the buyer owns it, he can do whatever he wants with it, including trying to sell it at a profit. A lot of this ire on OP's part IMO is sour grapes that the guy is trying to get $1200 for something OP lost money selling. You didn't have to sell it-and it's not his fault you needed $. So get over it. As to the neg, the buyer was likely just misinterpreting the attempt by OP to get his fees back as an unjustified attempt to give him an NPB strike. This could have been corrected amicably but it quickly got stupid... on both sides. My opinion... it's karma for going outside of ebay to do the deal to save a buck. >>
I dont think you read half of my posts....I clearly said like 4 times this has NOTHING to do with the card at all. I am in no way upset at him or have any remorse about selling him that card or him posting it up for double of what he paid. its been on ebay for a few weeks and nobodys bought it and i could care less how much he makes off of it. Im upset that we made a deal and he gave me negative feedback for no reason. please read the whole post if youre going to make assumptions >>
I did read the posts, including the repetitive ones... thanks very much. And if it's not about what he's selling it for, then how come you've mentioned it more than once? If YOU bother to read all of MY post above, you'd have noticed this passage where I commented about the neg, thus:
"As to the neg, the buyer was likely just misinterpreting the attempt by OP to get his fees back as an unjustified attempt to give him an NPB strike. This could have been corrected amicably but it quickly got stupid... on both sides."
I have no dog in this fight... but at the end of the day it's one negative that will eventually fall off your record anyway. Certainly not worth a multiple page thread at any rate. Get over it and move on with your life.
