Let me get this out of the way up front, so no one else has to say it: "It's his card, and he's entitled to think it's worth whatever he wants"
2013 Allen Ginter Robin Yount 1 1 Hidden Box Topper | eBay
I offered $200 for this card to figure out where the seller was at. I figured he didn't know much about what he had, since he's a (0) feedback seller. He declines my offer and sends me the following note with the decline: "Sorry yall are not even close, this card is worth more than 400.00. This is a steal at 400, only one produced, still in the box top wrapper."
I sent him another offer for $300, and it's as high as I'll probably go, unless he just tries to squeeze another $20 out of me or something. I also sent him a note with the offer detailing the prices I paid for one of the dual rip cards with Yount and Braun, as well as the price I paid for the wood mini.
Now, I know it can be annoying when people try and tell you that your card isn't worth what you're asking; but I would think I'm in a more unique position to have insight on what the value might be, as opposed to the seller.
IDK, maybe I'm being a *****, but I feel like Yount cards is my business, and this guy thinks he's going to tell me my business. Maybe when it doesn't sell for the $399 he's asking, he'll see ot my way; unless I get horn-swaggled by an insane Topps set collector who pays this guy's price. Whenever I see people asking insane prices, I feel like dropping them a line and saying "hey, if you ever get tired of relisting that card and actually want to sell it, hit me up. I'll tell you the NOT-insane price you should be asking."
