Buying $$$$...but not that one!!!

Re: Buying $$$$...but not that one!!!

I am sorry if my method of posting want ads offends you but I do and will pay what I consider to be a fair price for what i want. Additionally when I say that I am interested in ANY 1994 49er gamer that is exactly what i mean. Some of us follow thru with what we post. I am in no way flashing $$$ around but if someone is thinking of selling something I want and see that i am willing to pay a fair price and sometimes a price above market value the $$$$ signs may help them make the decision to sell. if you dont like the want ad dont read it.

Solarlottry....I'm confused! How did my post seem to get under you skin? It was not about you and did not even refer to you. I know that you are a big 49ers fan and always looking, If you include $$$ in your post that's up to you and your choice. Just said that I don't flash it and that there are too many ppl that seem to throw the "big money" stuff around too much. That's all.

No worries or offense taken. It is quite ironic that many people do post their wants ads like that and when the times comes never back it up. The funny thing is that for all of those ads i have posted very few have ever generated a response!

Even with the posted "finders fee" of up to 500$ for the shirts i am really looking for-no response!!!! If someone had a friend that had one of the 4 shirts i need to complete the entire starting line up of the 94 team i would gladly pay them a hefty finders fee. In fact just today someone collected a 100$ finders fee for connecting me with a fellow 49er collector who sold me a nice shirt. I put my $ where my mouth is. i just wish more people would find that out by selling me the following 94 shirts:

Lee Woodall
Dennis Brown
Derrick Deese
Doug Brien

Always buying 49ers shirts and ANY 1994 49er gamer!

I find this post to be quite funny. In the almost two years I have been on this board. I have posted several want ads and several sale ads. The vast majority of responses for the sale ads was insanely lowball offers which were downright insulting since I normally post my stuff well below market to move it quickly to use towards other purchases. Or even better crazy trade offers. Such as offering questionable junk for a star players item. The vast majority of responses I have received for the want ads are people trying to sell stuff at a large markup and often the stuff they are selling is originally from a major company and is available cheaper directly from such major company every day of the week.

I agree, but for different reasons... the thread started off being about people claiming they want ALL of Team X or Player Y but responding that in actuality, they are only looking for item Z.

Now it's become a diatribe on lowball offers, etc...

I think people are just making the point that both Buyers and Sellers can get on one another's nerves in a variety of ways.

As for the big $ business...let's be honest. What's big $ for one person may be pocket change for somebody else. It's dangerous to assume.
