You're missing the point, the whole reason why I
posted a reply.
You seem to think just offering piles of stuff
and saying "I'm serious" is going to make the new
owner cave, but it may very well be that this cel
is a dream cel of it's new owner, too, and it
seems like you need to prepare yourself for
the possibility that no offer you can come up with
will persuade them. Personally, I like the cel
you're wanting tons more than the one you're
offering as an incentive...and that may be the new
owner's case, too. You can't have everything,
everyone in this hobby has to come to terms with
it at some point. I've offered some of the
regulars here a LOT for cels they have that I'd
like, but they don't want to sell them, it's their
right. Sucks to miss out on a dream cel, or
know someone else has the cel that you just
"feel" should be yours but that's the breaks.
Appreciating your seriousness means squat if
he/she wants the cel themselves. I'm just telling
you that you probably should stop, take a
deep breath, and realize that you may not get it,
and frankly, if I was the person you were
pursuing, I'd be a little scared of the vibe of
"mania" that's coming off your posts. |
