Just asking what everyone else thinks and how they would handle this situation (which I am sure happens quite frequently on here). Seller posts a bat for sale for $XXX OBO. I offer a little less ($10) than asking just because everyone haggles on here and because I think the bat in question was priced at the high end of its value. Seller sends PM back to me a short time later stating "it's yours for $XXX (my offer). my paypal is xxxxx, etc. I was busy doing something when I got that PM or else I would have sent paypal right away. Get another PM from the seller 11 minutes later stating he was offered $5 more than my offer and that he was going to sell to the other buyer instead. :wtf2:.
I know, sour grapes and all that. And I know this happens a lot on here. Heck, I've probably done it too in the past (can't really remember doing it though) but probably waited longer than 11 minutes. Guess I'm a bit peeved at these "backdoor auctions". And no, I am not going to start a NGTG or buyer beware thread....
