By posting that link, you basically threw a banana into a giant cage of hungry monkeys and went to ask the zoo keeper if it was organically grown.

You win the award for the most accurate comparison ever.

<< <i>I think in this scenario BBCE was the banana thrower and AZDBzn2019 was the the monkey who inquired about its organic provenance to the other monkeys before eating it, and was at that point beaten about the face and head by other monkeys, one of which who then obtained and devoured said banana. >>
face and head, that is funny

It is pretty greedy.

+1, might make people not want to post legitimate questions.
This comment would be considered reddit gold right there. Best thing I have read in a while.
As far as posting items that you are seriously considering on purchasing that maybe look like a good buy/investment - just don't post them on here. Somebody will not hesitate to purchase from under your nose. It's really that simple.

Agreed. The best answer anyone would have been able to give was a guess. Calling BBCE instead would have given the OP an actual answer.

BBCE is not taking calls at 8 pm.

Buy first, ask questions later? LOL..

I hate to say it, but sometimes it's a risk one has to take.
Look, for instance, at the thread the other day where Craig (Loyalty32) found the auction for the OPC boxes offered by The Salvation Army with only minutes left. He certainly did not have the time to ask questions and had to make a quick decision.
Another example (sort of) everyday at work (Goodwill) we have the usual group of customers who immediately grab products once they hit the shelf (to claim it) and then pullout their smartphones to look-up the value. Most of the time they end up putting the stuff back on the shelf.
Recently I lost out on a box of case break '80 OPC from BBCE because I had questions and hesitated.
If someone is going to do this (pull the trigger before asking questions) then, unless it's an egregious error on the seller's part, they need to follow through with the deal.
