Impulse Break of 2008 Absoulte FB at the LCS

[bmc398]

Was at the LCS picking up the box of 2008 Goudey I had ordered and saw one box of this on the Shelf staring at me at a decent price of $108.

First pack: Team Trios Triple Jersey AFC Jaguars Taylor/Gerrard/Jones-Drew/50 --asking $8 dlvd.

Second Pack: Marcus Smith RC Auto/99- At this point I looked at the shop owner and said "@$%# there goes my auto!! Asking $5 dlvd.

Third Pack- Donnie Avery RPM 3 piece jersey/199 Asking $5 dlvd.

Was Kinda bummed at this point and was waiting for that pick me up and then BOOOOM....

Fourth Pack...MATT RYAN RPM Jersey/Ball/Jersey Auto RC /299!!!!

All cards are FS minus the Ryan (you can thank Guru for requesting a price...). No trades. Must come strong for the Ryan as I live in atlanta and am not against holding it for Next football season.

The rules of the forum are that you post prices. I can send you the link to the rules if you need it.

That's probably a lost sale with the "sticklers". But you probably don't care. Listing prices on items seems like a reasonable request and rule to me.

[jdb34]

Not to mention, your in the wrong section to SELL your cards.

[bmc398]

I do sell a lot in the for sale section and always follow the rules.

Didn't know the same applied to the box breaks section. have seen an "all cards FS" (which I initially had and has since been edited) at the end of posts in the box breaks section without those people getting jumped all over. People can make offers if they like, but living in Atlanta I don't feel as if I'll have a hard time getting a decent price for this card. You'd think if somebody had a real interest in the card they wouldn't hassle me about the rules in general and instead ask me nicely for a price on THE ONE CARD THEY WERE INTERESTED IN.

Just trying to share some MOJO...wasn't trying to make a sale.

[jdb34]

This is what started it: "All cards are FS minus the Ryan (you can thank Guru for requesting a price...)."

Guru simply asked for a scan and your price(since it's in the rules), then you edit your post with that comment. So your to blame for getting 'jumped on'

[bmc398]

I asked him if he had interest a specific card thru PM. Instead of telling me what he was interested in he reffered me to the rules...about 3 PMs later he asked me for a price on the Ryan...which I don't want to do since I don't do much football and have no clue what the asking price is. There is more behind what I said than what is in this thread. I was miffed because he could have skipped 4 steps and jumping on me and just explained he wanted a price on the Ryan. If a mod wants to move this to the sale and trade forum then fine.

I asked for a price on all the cards and I also explained the rules.

Please get your facts strait. I was hoping for a price on the Ryan more than the others, but I didn't know you were going to make it a big deal.

My request was simple... Prices & Pictures.

[bmc398]

Again...I'll say it in public...I gave you a price on all the other cards and told you I had no clue on the Ryan since I don't do football and there are no close alternatives on Ebay. Also, am in process of moving for a new job and the scanner is packed up but offered to send you a pic of whatever you liked...

Not going to be bullied into selling a card that I don't know what its worth and nobody is willing to give me a stright answer on what its value is.

I tried my best to answer yoru requests but how come nobody else gets jumped on for not pricing their cards in the box break forums? I was just trying to make the card available if somebody had interest in it. Maybe somebody who has a real interest in it and wants to work with me (i am very reasonable, ask some people I have worked with on the sale boards) will PM me and help me out. I'm not some scammer and the last thing I want now is your money. While your initial questions were simple you were roundabout in your requests and replies. You want a price and don't want to help me even tho its a product and sport I don't keep up with much? Doesn't seem very fair.

I hope this has helped you.

I should not have to price your cards. And in your original post (prior to your editing it) you said all were available for sale.

[bmc398]

I did say they were available for sale and stated later in the thread that after I edited it as well. Not trying to hide that fact. My issue is with you jumping on me because I didn't price the one card you wanted for cheap when people say "all cards are for sale" on the box breaks board all the time without harassment

I never said you have to price my cards. If you want it then why not make a reasonable offer and we go from there? All I asked was for some consultation on what a fair price was since I didn't know nor follow it. Thanks for you help in the last post. I am not selling if the card is only going for $100 at this time.

The reason for them jumping on you is simple. You are considered fairly new, therefor you must be punished for you wrong doings! Tsk Tsk to you for not listing your prices in the breaks section! You should have known the loopholes are not true loopholes to the people that slam on their brakes at yellow light causing a chain reaction accident!

thanks. In the only other 2 football boxes I opened all year I got a Joe Flacco auto from Classics and a Romo auto from SPA. Guess I should stick to football now huh??

Did you ever get the 4 score select autos I sold to you??

[pjnjjsdad]

Oh yeah, nice break!

[guru]

What part of what I said on here was ever jumping on you???

Hahaha. I mean really. #1 its easter. #2 its pieces of cardboard. I understand the hobby has a money making element to it but it seems I was being pushed to price a card that I didnt know the price of so somebody could get a deal off me. If somebody really wanted it youd think they'd be a little more accomodating?

Not in the thread but in PMs saying constantly that its in the rules. You and 4 other people did the same thing...and nobody would have said a thing if you wouldn't have made a deal baout it and given me the run around. I obviously didn't know the same rules applied on the box break board since I had seen it done before without incident.

Sorry I offended you.

You could have said...hey, I really like the Ryan...PM me with a price and a pic instead of simply asking for prices of the cards you werent interested in as well. I would have explained the same thing I have over and over to you...that I didnt know what to ask since I don't follow it and if you weren't being difficult just to be difficult we could have worked something out im sure. If you don't want to "price" my cards or help...thats your perogative...that shows you didn't want to help me find what it was selling for on Ebay, a fair price, and wanted to pay less im sure.

Thanks to you I now know the rules tho!! Yay!!

[pjnjjsdad]

However, in Gurus defense... He is a buyer, he jumps on people for prices all the time probably because of the simple fact that he is a buyer. I'm sure that he just wants to buy it w/o having to do the leg work... Think about it, if you walked in to say wal-mart for example, and they said hmmm looks like we don't know the price, please go to Target and come back with a price and we will go from there... I would probably just buy it from Target you know?

[bmc398]

Thats very true and I understand that. How am I going to price it if I don't have anywhere to start tho? I looked on ebay and didnt see any other copleted ones yesterday after I broke it on my phone. How am I supposed to know that he isn't going to offer me and instead be hard to work with? Maybe since I didn't know enough about the card I shouldn't have offered it for sale. It would have avoided all this crap to start with. Sorry for making the card available...its not any longer and will be on ice until football season.

[fungi2510]

I posted this on the baseball board also, but I do not get how you are jumping on this guy, when almost every says something is available. That is no different than saying it is for sale to me. If you are on this guy, get on every single breaker that posts on here. It is the same thing.
