So I've been on COMC since Feb and it's been a great experience. However, in the last week yankeedodel has sent me the same offer for the same card 5 or six times. I don't send him a counter I just reject it. It's a stupid $1 card that he wants for 75 cents. Seriously? So now I gotta up my price to $2.00 to block his offers.

I know there isn't a way to send a email on COMC but I think its pretty clear communication.

Really holding out for that quarter....

The reverse is also true. After you offer .75 and get declined once or twice, take a hint.


Exactly. If you have to haggle someone over .25 and they decline..move on. Ridiculous to haggle over .25 in the first place.

You have a $1 card listed as a BIN/BO and you're first rant is that a guy keeps making you an offer?

Come on man! :D

While 25 cents is only 25 cents, I side with the seller completely. It's his price to set and he should not be the one who has to give on it if he does not choose to do so. The buyer on the other hand..... a quarter? Go check your local WalMart parking lot to cover that amount, I'm sure you'll find even more than that out there.

::facepalm:: at the fact that the guy would offer 75 cents multiple times rather than "BITING THE BULLET" on that big fat quarter he's going to have to cough up to buy the card.

Right, but isn't this entire issue avoided by not have the option of a best offer on a $1 card?

Every card on COMC can have offers placed on it. The only way to auto decline offers is to purchase a premium account.

I side with the OP. That is one of the few things I dislike about COMC. I wish you could choose to take offers on an item or not.

Just leave the offer open until he decides to cancel it. It ties up the .75 cents in his account and doesn't do anything but leave his offer on your dashboard.

I like this idea. Clearest way to send him the hint!
