it wasn't exactly 2 days. I rounded it up.
look at the posts I think I broke it down into hours I think I just think this is funny people are still looking at this. Thanks Ki you have been really cool with me.

Yep, I will say to everyone that our transactions have been smooth and problem-free.

I will also say that my deals with Kan have been the same.

for what it's worth,
anyone looking for the WORKING DESIGNS U.S. SATURN Rayearth
really needs to also look out for the original japanese release as well.
they are both total must-haves:

Missed this thread...pretty funny stuff here.

Noobs, want to buy something then you need to be responsive in a timely fashion. Common Buying Etiquette 101.

that was a great price but the ongoing argument seems a bit petty..i'm new and i buy shit here because i despise the dudes on ebay that dont even play the games they sell....i always give a trade and cash option as i like to see my games go to other gamers not some chotch who just wants to shelve em with all his unopened ps2 imports...hope this debacle doesnt taint the rep of all the other neo-phytes here...

It wasn't petty at all. The doucher tried to weasel his way into a discount and then threw a temper tantrum because I told him to fuck off. If he had just made me a $40 offer outright, bought the game for $50 like he said or PM'd me a "no thanks" none of this shit would be stickied. Now his rep is fucked over ten freaking dollars plus the game went to someone else.

Like I've said a bunch of times, it wasn't the $10 discount that pissed me off but the way he went about trying to get it.

Whatevs, ancient news anyway.

I guess I'm not getting how the initial potential buyer tried to "weasel a deal" when the seller chose to lower the price after not getting a response.

It'd be like a grocery store refusing to sell products to people who didn't buy something when it was at its regular price. "Sorry Sir/Madame, you can't have that 12 pack of Coke which this week is on sale because you didn't buy it last week when it was full price."

Whether the non-response time was 2 days or 2 weeks, it doesn't matter. Don't lower a price if you'll be bothered to sell it at that price. But on the flip side, which didn't happen here, don't agree to buy something at a predetermined price, then once it's removed from the market start to ask for the price to be lowered behind the scenes. That would be weaseling a deal.
