<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrNate, post: 4507518, member: 5515&quot;]Yeah. It&#039;s super frustrating Johnny, and when it happens to me I feel instantly upset. But I also have mixed emotions about it in general...a few thoughts:</p><p><br /></p><p>-Above all else, I don&#039;t want someone to feel bad about the deal afterwards. I&#039;ve got one rule that if a seller were ever to contact me after the deal, or after something was shipped or picked up, and they wanted it back, I&#039;m sending it back for a refund, because I believe this can be a moral pursuit of treasure.</p><p><br /></p><p>-I&#039;m also a bit old school, and personally when I agree to a deal, even if I realized it was a bad deal for me, I follow through on my commitment. I&#039;ve had instances where I quickly made an offer to buy something, and later that night my research reveals I just agreed to purchase a dud silverplate piece, but I still make those purchases even though I could easily back out of the deal.</p><p><br /></p><p>-So while I don&#039;t want someone to feel bad about the deal afterwards (a moral standard I place on myself), I also don&#039;t believe backing out of deals is proper (another moral standard I place on myself), I can&#039;t control for the belief system of others. Furthermore, I recognize that my belief system probably isn&#039;t perfect either. The person who realizes they are about to give away treasure for too cheap is fully within their rights to back out of a deal. Personally, I believe that sticking with the deal is a lesson in itself....like sheesh I&#039;ll look more carefully before I start listing stuff to make sure I don&#039;t make that mistake again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
