[quote="P_Manning 18":gnt2t471]Isnt that the Buster Posey Gold you bought for $600? If so... why sell it now before any games have been played for a $150 loss? Thats the reverse of prospecting right? Buy high... sell lower before games are played?

No, it's a different one. Thanks for your concern.

Different than this one? [ebay:gnt2t471]250332385113[/ebay:gnt2t471]

Looks like they printed a double set like the Red Refractors a year or 2 ago.

Cut the guy a freaking break. U/We/I can't make money on every card bought, that is a fact of life. He is taking a loss on a card, do you really need to point it out????

Agree. Although I probably wouldn't go through the guys old auctions to prove it. Usually when I know I'm going to take a loss on something, I list it BIN/BO at a price above or at what I paid in case someone felt like overpaying to bail me out. But to each his own...

I don't understand why Jaypers felt compelled to lie. Obviously we all take hits on cards; I took a bath on a ton of stuff over the winter when I lost my job and could no longer afford to sit on stuff I didn't intend to sell, and was thus forced to sell plenty for well below what I had paid at pretty much the worst time to sell in years. It's not a big deal, why lie?

I think he might have been being sarcastic. He obviously doesn't have to disclose his choice for selling it at this time. Manning's question is not altogether unreasonable either though.

Darn. You caught me. Oh well. Somehow I have to find the strength to go on.

When someone makes a completely unrelated post in a thread of mine for the sole purpose of busting my chops, I don't feel any obligation to take it seriously. If you don't like it, by all means, put me on your foe list.

Card was not gradable?


I doubt he wants to answer that while hes trying to sell the card :lol:

Two possibilities that come to mind: Sarcasm or not wanting to get in trouble for spammage. I do give credit for creative spamming.

Generally, I don't buy cards with the intention to flip them for more money, so my view on this may be off. With that said, what business is it of yours to criticize someone else's selling decisions? The fact that you'd keep track of Jayper's purchases/sales is creepy to say the least. Frankly, it's none of your business (or anyone else's for that matter).

Again, I don't prospect so I have a slightly different perspective. I understand tracking prices of certain cards makes sense for a prospector, but to call out any individual prospector's buy/flip prices...sheesh. You have too much time on your hands.

Not condoning either side but if one wants to jump on P manning 18 for questioning JP's auction, then one must criticize JP for jumping on this lady's auction

Good idea to list it at 2x price next time if it doesn't sell. Should be up to 100grand by Opening Day!

Yeah that kind of logic would annoy me enough to not deal with the seller. She raised the price by 100 dollars every time she relisted it for awhile. Usually it goes the other way until the price finds its way into buyers' price ranges, although the seller doesn't seem to want to sell the card at all unless someone offers her about twice as much as it's actually worth. Looks like she'll be holding it for a long time.

Still just doesn't make sense to expect more money for a red ref #/5 than the superfractor 1/1 got.

you must not have read the description, cause it practically is a 1/1 for being 1/5, so it should sell like a super LOL
