Being both a collector and a dealer from time to time I am
disappointed that you had to experience this. This sort of
experience probably makes you question the integrity of
other dealers as well. If it does, then we all suffer for
it, dealers and collectors both.
But when it comes to selling cels, business is business. If
someone doesn't want your money, they lose. In this case
many people lose considering the number of people who have
posted letters of support.
I've had many people ask me questions and never buy. No big
deal, that's business. I had someone flame me because
they didn't like the price I put on something. They didn't
get a response because they never asked for a discount.
Maybe it's because I don't do this full time and maybe it's
because I am a consultant. I can't mess around at my job,
someone else gets the business and some of the jobs my
company gets are worth more than most of the cel sites make
in a year. It's a different perspective for me. |
