He listed it, I bought it. Not my fault if he doesn't know prices. Like I said before, if these cards came out numbered to /1000 and sold for $10, would he refund me $20?
As a seller, it'd be more like if you paid $150-200 on a $30 card on pre-order ... and you bought about 30 of them ... in that case I think most people would accept it was an error? I wouldn't expect anybody to pay in that instance.
Also I've sold heaps of cards on this forum for less then 50% of market/eBay value. Only one person has ever told me I was selling to cheap. And it sure wasn't thenamesgould and his bleeding heart.
I too have to agree that he has been one of the more reasonable sellers out there, he has made a terrible rookie mistake, but as long as he makes some amends for it (one card per customer) he surely must be given some slack. It is a pretty big mistake to learn from.
Also as a single box buyer I have gone from being very excited about this release to quite disappointed. I have been a very keen collector since the early 90s and I simply can't afford to buy multiple boxes or cases. This sounds like it is going the way of the last release and leaving us smaller time collectors with the high probablility of spending a considerable amount of money on very little if the box is a bust. Collecting for a lot of us seems to be going the way of buying what we need from Ebay rather than opening it up in a packet and that sucks.
I bought a box of the last release and spent every pack angry about not getting anything of value and just couldn't enjoy it as much as knowing I was going to get a Top Prospect card (and maybe a cool number) and a predictor as well as the chance of a high end sig card. As it happened my last pack contained two captains sigs, but I still hadn't been able to shake that disappointment and dread of feeling as if I was about to be ripped off, instead of the excitement of busting packets.
Mind you I also acknowledge that this is just the first series this year and is a hell of a lot more exciting than any Champions release.
