Sometimes wish i was a scumbag.

[lee gray]

I try not being a scumbag or hypocrit, when I hear of people who contact a seller after something is sold and offer the seller more money, I hate scum like that. its low and underhand.

However there was something vintage i was really after and just missed out and i was really contemplating contacting the seller offering them a chunk more money so they might let me have the item but I couldnt bring myself to do it as not fair on the buyer ,so I sat it out and now im pissed off instead of maybe being extactic, lol

 

[walkie]

that's stinks.

For me...I guess it all depends. I would not do it on this forum or over another collector I knew or respected.

I'm currently waiting and hoping this doesn't happen on a bargain I picked up yesterday on a re-listed item! Fingers crossed

 

[jackabina]

All sales should be honored in my opinion. Well restrained Lee :wink:

As a seller...I agree with this 100%

Doing the right thing and being a good person is WAY better than having stuff. If only more people in the collecting/selling/buying [vintage] world knew that and lived by it.

Lee ..well done mate

You can't buy self esteem and respect, you have to live your life by a code.
Your character has been built up throughout your life, and you need to be proud that your a decent honest person, I applaud you for that.

I'm a great believer in what goes round comes around, and there is a bigger picture.

Don't be miffed about it, be proud that you've stuck to your principles

Well done buddy

This. Do onto others .....
Your integrity can't be bought. Nothing stopping you contacting the buyer when they leave feedback. Hopefully they are willing to flip it for less than you were willing to pay

 

[lee gray]

It was actually on here not sure who buyer is, only contemplated it 2% as was only pending at the time so hoped I might luck out.
Seller is a great guy though anyway so sure he wouldnt have obliged

Just posted this for a bit of fun.

Mate you did the right thing and you should feel happy about that... you will get your reward next week or next year, but it'll come. As Michael and Pete say its more important to have a moral code to live by than to have stuff if it means screwing other people over. People that do that will get theirs eventually :twisted:

edit: oops just saw your last post Lee

Well said pete!
I whole heartedly agree with this there are so many snakes in one of my other hobbys it kinda Thrives off it GASH I say.

 

[lee gray]

Yeah I woudnt really do nothing like that just peed I was too late
It still annoys me so much about the guy who did that with the tri madine. No integrity for buyer or seller...pieces of ****.

[Dark Sith Lord]

Mate you did the right thing.

I had this exact thing happen to me a few weeks back. (and not on here I might add)

Someone had a mint Trilogo Luke Hoth for 70 euro.

So I send a message and say "I will take the Luke Hoth" but as he had other mocs I throght I would look at them and then complete the deal. Didn't want anything else so I said so I just take the Luke Hoth.

Sorry I have sold it to someone else who offered 5 more euro and immediate payment. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

What makes it worse is I specifically said if the thread "consider the Luke Hoth sold" in the thread
Lesson learned tho if you spy someone buy it! :lol: :lol: :lol: :roll:

 

[lee gray]

For just 5 euros more is dumb.

 

[itfciain]

Bloody hell Liam - a Trilogo Luke Hoth for 70 Euros (or even 75) is a massive bargain - I bet you were well gutted

Was this on eBay ?
