jsh139 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 I kind of feel the same way. If it was one or two that he bought to resell, that's one thing. But he bought like 6 or 7 of them. And he bought them immediately. It's not like they were languishing in the for sale forum for months. I bet some collectors that would have cherished them never even got a chance. And now they're out there grossly overpriced. Oh well, guess the early bird gets the worm. I'll definitely treat this as a lesson learned.

furiousd Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Oh well, guess the early bird gets the worm. I'll definitely treat this as a lesson learned. And that lesson is, "refresh a thousand times a day just so you don't miss something good." That can't just be me, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Clearly not the only guy in the world to ever do this, but I guess it stings a little more when its one of our own. That being said, its still his money, and his risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guam64 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 ConcreteCharlie has been doing this since long before most of LA discovered they had a professional hockey team. Slim sold them to him knowing exactly what was going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Of course not. But I bet there's people on this board who think he should have refused the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Slim posted them, someone came in with cash on hand and bought them all. I hope I am not the only one who thinks neither party did anything wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboys Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Maybe members are just noticing this but I have been here for a long time and have heard his BS for a long time ,just a few months back he tried to bully me into selling a USA jersey .I have refused to sell to a person as him he also has a bad name on Facebook as he has done the same to members there . As said you buy it it's yours so if he comes a knocking do not sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said you buy it it's yours so if he comes a knocking do not sell Trying to bully someone into a sale, or giving a fake story about how bad you want the jersey but you just can't afford it, are obviously not cool. But just coming to the table with cash, I'd never turn anyone away unless they had a completely horrible reputation for screwing people.

JoeM7392 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Nobody did anything wrong, especially slim. If I was selling I wouldn't give a s*** what the person does with it after he pays. I'm definitely keeping track of whose doing it, because whether it's right or wrong of me, it will sway me to not deal with that person if I'm on the fence about it in the future.

JoeM7392 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 I was too late on the Allison. Would have been nice to have, but I'm not paying that price. Assuming that's one that slim just had, this is why I don't like somebody scooping them all up to try to sell for profit. Again, and I can't stress this enough, nothing against what slim did because we'd all do the same. But people that would be happy to add something like that are now SOL because some guy just sees dollar signs and wants to flip them.

That's kind of where I am on the matter. I try to figure out what the market will bear, so it usually isn't an issue. But if I think it'll just be flipped anyway, I'll suspend my usual who-cares-about-ten-bucks goodwill I try to extend to people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Knowing someone is a flipper is important, because I'm less likely to give a flipper a lower price/better price than what I'm asking. But if I get what I've listed it for, they can wipe their dog's butt with it once they get it as far as I am concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) Knowing someone is a flipper is important, because I'm less likely to give a flipper a lower price/better price than what I'm asking. But if I get what I've listed it for, they can wipe their dog's butt with it once they get it as far as I am concerned. Agreed, but does anything ever sell for exactly what the original listed price is here? We usually tend to give each other breaks, like you said, but there isn't anyway I'm doing that if I think the dude is gonna sell it immediately after.It's good to keep tabs on who has a tendency to do that.
