    High Fidelity 2000: You expect the buyer to say, "that's too low, let me give you more money than you are asking for?"

    Actually, that's exactly what I did when he told me what he wanted for his dabs/munk Wrigley print. I guess I'm in the minority.

    I didn't actually post that sentence Johnnie.

    1) a guy posts a sale
    2) another guy buys the item in question for posted or nearly posted price

    so what's the fucking problem here? who cares if he needed the money quickly. that's exactly what people do when they are in a bind; sell low for guaranteed quick cash. I've done it. I don't expect anyone to give me charity. I don't even say the reason I'm selling it for lower than average. the buyer is not "taking advantage". he is giving the seller what he asked for.

    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    Ok I've said my piece. I hear both sides. Maybe I am a naive idiot. Can we just delete this thread and move on?

    no worries, there's a lot to get upset about in this forum sometimes, just need to focus on the good stuff like all the charity that goes on, and good ppl sending elwayvedder picks!
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    Yes it would. Just a bit.

    Hey I had a guy offer me $35 (and a sticker and a button) for a pick as part of a trade and I told him that was too much. I told him send me $25 instead. I know it happens. I just don't think most people expect it.

    (Sorry elway, to bring up picks) :)

    I'm cool with everything except the OP's foul language directed at me. But whatever. :)

    is everyone done yet???

    there was no harm no foul...between the sellers and buyer, and its done and over with.

    the harm is reading this post.

    people bitch about everything here... good price, bad price, ebay stuff, not getting items cause it sold out to fast.

    guess what people sometimes it sucks, but that's life sometimes too.

    and mixing up a bucket of shit will not make it smell any better.
