Should sellers be able to ask for more money after sale because they got other offers??? (2 Viewers)

[joeyshin]

Most of us here think its BS and I agree. I think if you list a price you should honor the price. That was your job to find their worth and ask what you want.

That being said, If you list something too high people bash you for flipping. If you list something too low you get bashed for not doing your research. So, only expert chippers with exact knowledge of current market trends are allowed.

 

[maxim_666666]

Everything is solved very simply. If you set a price, then stick to it. Or set a higher price and then lower it.

If you want more $, then go to the auction section. What the seller does is unpleasant, but we must admit that no one was hurt or deceived. But, I would never buy from a guy who plays these games again.

 

[WedgeRock]

Equally annoying is the guy that "releases dibs" because he changed his mind on wanting the item up for sale.

If you dibs a sale, you committed to buying it. If you change your mind and the seller is willing to let you out, fine. Perhaps the seller will leave a sale open to find a different buyer at the same price. But if you commit to buy chips, the sale is done.

also funny and ironic is when a new person makes a thread asking "what are these worth?" we're like....use the search function noob.


LOL.....we're idiots!

Check the date. This never changes:

It's so easy to be an ethical chipper in terms of transacting in good faith, sticking to your word, and being communicative with other chippers, new or old. Yet these threads always seem to pop up and cause a stir.

Shame, but hey, at least we get some entertainment between poker games. Only being on Page 6 is child's play.

Speaking of ruling:

I've been following this stat with intent since this poll has opened and noticed a sharp incline in interest in the last 12 hours. For full transparency, I voted for this option mainly to better understand how this would exactly take place. I've never seen a musket duel before so I'm curious and have many questions.

For example:

1. Can participants bring their own style of musket or is it expected that the muskets be the same for both combatants?
2. Are these muskets loaded in advance of the duel or is loading a part of the fight?
3. Is there a limit of munitions allowed for this duel?
   1. If so, does the musket have to be used to bring death to the opponent (ie are fisticuffs allowed or does the duelist have to use the musket as a weapon at all times?
4. If i accidentally see my opponent's hole cards, am I really calling the floor on myself?
5. Does the duel allow the participants to run around, find cover, etc or just stand and shoot like in the westerns?
   
   So many questions...

 

[MatB]

Hmmmm. A ruling on a dueling

When you live in the woods these are already understand. Answers:

1. Muskets are provided
2. You must load your own musket, black powder, wad and round ball
3. One shot (don't mess it up)
4. Uhhhhhh.....I feel like this is a trap question
5. Stand still like a real man

Is this your first derailed thread?!

I was afraid you'd say this. What happens when neither combatant dies (or even gets hit) from the first (and only) fire? They just stand there... and wait to die... of thirst?!

This is going to play poorly on ESPN the Ocho.

 

[shorticus]

Okay, I've not read this entire thread (so I don't know if this has been stated already), but I'm going to share my 2 cents.

As with all my sales, I'll honor dibs within reason, but I'm not allowing you to say dibs and then I wait 2 days to hear from you. Along those same lines, if you message me with questions, I do not assume that questions indicate a willingness to buy. While I'm never in a rush to sell chips, I'm definitely not passing up a sale because a person either goes ghost or is unsure. That's not fair to me or to the others who have interest in buying the chips.

Now, I want to be 100% clear on this cause this is super important to me. If anyone ever goes in PMs and tries to increase the price of chips privately when they are listed in the classifieds for sale at a given price, said person should be outed publicly and immediately in the classifieds. Active members of this community deserve the right to know who the asshats are, and we are charged with the responsibility of making sure our fellow members are aware of the people who are trying to take advantage of us. Such occurrences should also be given negative feedback in the feedback area.

I'm not suggesting that the person should be banned because people can change and grow, but our community definitely needs to know when these things occur.

If you are civilized...

1. Two muskets are provided by the challenger's "Second". The challenged gets to select their musket first. The pistols could be inspected beforehand to insure there was no tampering (hidden safety for example) - this was also the responsibility of the seconds (trusted friends of each duelist).
2. The weapons are loaded before the duel, in front of witnesses.
3. One round each. 3.1) The purpose of the duel wasn't to kill, it was to protect honor. The act of showing for the duel was often enough to preserve one's honor.
4. No need to call the floor, but you should clearly state that your opponent should protect their cards. One warning is customary, two warnings is keeping it friendly. Not mentioning to to the opponent could be on the borderline of collusion.
5. The duel is to stand 10-15 paces apart. When the command to fire is given, participants are allowed up to a minute to take their shot (this could be negotiated). Andrew Jackson once took a bullet to the chest, but steadied his aim against his opponent, and shot him dead.

Anybody else hear "Hamilton" when they read this? I don't want to. But I do.

You then walk away. This actually is the most common outcome... Just like this entire thread. It's resolved without violence of memes and PMs.

Ruling?

I have checked the date on the prior comment, and a comment from May of 2024 is not old enough for a "this never changes" comment as it is not sufficient time.

8 laps for the overstatement. And if you don't come in in less than 10 minutes, 40 pushups and one more lap after.

I've always interpreted that it's an egg shell around a collection of thousands and thousands of chips that will never exit said shell.

Pretty sure that once the lead starts flying it’s open game on anything, even angle shooting

You’re right too, but let’s be honest — it’s more of a hobby than real Amazon sales, and people sometimes make completely thoughtless and spontaneous purchases. Aside from obvious flippers, almost nobody here makes any money.
