I whole heartedly agree with this post. I've never given this thread much mind and think it just breads negativity on the boards. I believe Sharon also made a really solid post about how it was just a negative thread. Use the eBay feedback system. It seems people would rather gnaw off their own leg than leave anything other than positive feedback.

You can keep saying there is a difference and I can keep saying there isn't. Saying I am not looking at it the right way and you are doesn't get us anywhere.

When did recognizing disrespect become an emotional response? The answer to your question is no. The corollary you're looking for is not pricing the item in the first place. I think the whole idea of disrespect is an emotional response. "Disrespect" isn't an emotion. Emotions are things like "anger", "fear", "joy", things one feels as part of a mental response to circumstances. "Disrespect" is an action. That is not the answer I gave, no. The corollary you are looking for is a seller not pricing their items. That is the corollary to the buyer who makes lowball offers. I disagree on both points. On pricing you brought up a buyer looking for a "sucker" to take advantage of with a low ball offer. I see no difference with a seller pricing way high looking for a "sucker". I understand that you see no difference, but as I said, there is one, and it's foundational. It hinges on the idea of what one may do with one's property when offering it for sale. The distinction may seem subtle...or even non-existent, as you have stated...but it is not, and goes beyond comparisons of who is looking for a "sucker." That's only looking at the situation on the surface. You say there is a difference. I say there isn't. Probably not more to discuss.

And this is what insomnia looks like in written form.

So to be clear on your answer then, a seller looking for a sucker by pricing something high is fine, but a buyer doing the same is disrespectful?

I'm curious how many people see a low ball offer as a sign of disrespect. Seems silly to me to attach such emotion over it. And for those that do do you also find someone listing a book way above fmv as a sign of disrespect towards buyers?

Donmeca - do you honestly not think you lowballed him? You can argue if that is ok or not, but at least own up to it.

Why take it personally? Life is too short. I wouldn't waste my time sending snarky emails.

He looks really sad.

Thanks so much to Doug (dscott) for getting this done for me. It turned out to be a major PITA. And a bonus it came back a 9.8. I bought the only one that was on ebay at the time.

Who pays their mortgage with a check? My mortgage is at a different bank than my checking account. Otherwise I'd just do an auto-deduction. I wish I could start just using my Amex though if they take it. Earn points. Wait... can I do that? Because that would be brilliant. I need to look into that. My mortgage is at a different bank than I use. I just use online bill pay. I actually checked to see if I could pay with a CC for my mortgage and they don't take it.

The original for reference.

Moore's is 14" tall. The base is 12" long and 8.5" wide. Preliminary numbers from ARH: 25.5" tall, 24"wide, 13" deep.

This would have to be agreed up front. A seller has the right to set their own rules. No comic book purchase is worth the trouble of dealing with lazy people. Then cross them off your list.

From my view it just seems like it is getting too complicated. A simple "you have xx amount of time from date of purchase to nominate someone for the PL" seems the easiest way to go.

That looks awesome.

No Mad Max on the census. I wonder how long that will take.

Cool book for Charlize Theron SS. In my book she's one of the most beautiful women, ever! That would be very cool.

Some early looks at ARH's The Barbarian (based on the Frazetta painting). Obviously not painted. This is going to be huge. And probably $800.

As someone who never sells I think I might just try and bundle up the relative few I have and try and sell it as one lot. I've got a handful of the first one and now these Furioso.
