Hey, it's nobodys fault but the sellers if THEY set the price and you offer to pay that price in full. Now if you had tried to tire kick after agreeing to pay the said amount, then yeah, kinda makes you a little bit of a jerk. I think we've all paid less for a machine before....who wouldn't shop for a deal at a retail store? If you get a smoking deal at a Best Buy ,I guarantee you aren't going to go back there and say "here's an extra $200, I want to pay full retail." Like I said, it's just my opinion, but yeah. I do agree that there are greedy sellers who want an auction without having to pay ebay fees though
^^^This is why I did not mention his handle lol.
As for A and B above, if the seller is a greedy shit this will ALWAYS happen here anyways, there are like 10,000,000 people in this city. They tend to get theirs when their generous buyers turn out to be flakes or just turn up to kick tires and lowball.
If it is something you want you can either pony up a fair offer or expect to miss out. If they ask for $100 for a game that is worth $1000 and I just buy it up for $100... wouldn't that sort of make ME the jerk?
I do think it was rude of this particular guy to try to scoop the deal immediately after I told him I sent an email on it though. It speaks volumes about a person's mindset and character (definitely shows a total lack of regard to me). I guess if I had to learn to keep him at arm's length at least it happened on a deal I didn't give a shit about.![]()
