Canceled Atlantic Club Hotstamp Tourney Set (2 Viewers)

[RedToBlue]

By the way, a very large number of threads in classifieds right now have potential buyers posting offers ITT....

 

[shorticus]

What did I do wrong? I made an offer. There's a third party (not involved) telling everyone how good a deal is that has no intention of buying.

People condoning prices is common place around here. It helps people (especially newer buyers) to identify deals.

I’d appreciate you not calling my thread suspect as I have no intention of being ill-willed toward anyone. I take my reputation on this site seriously so I’d rather not have anyone or anything jeopardize that. Thanks.

 

[RedToBlue]

I called the thread padding suspect, which was not done by you. Clearly said it was a third party....

 

[Hornet]

Is it considered good form to pad the thread with 'omg this is a great deal' when you have no intention of buying?

Just read the rules, thanks.

I posted because I like the set, I think its a good deal, and in fact this ad has been keeping me up at night because I don't want to buy it but I am afraid I might (also part of the ugly underbelly of chipping )

I did not do any of this so thanks for confirming.

Same for me … and I never host tournaments outside of meetups.

LOL, well at least you host tournaments at meetups!

I'm still just dreaming of the day when I will host a tournament or meetup . . . but the dream is alive and well and in the meantime, these *would* look vewy purdy on the shelf

The beautiful thing about markets is, when something is a really good deal, a sale is usually made. It’s almost as if there’s an invisible hand that pushes market forces to move things forward. I should trademark that phrase - I like it.

The market needs supply and demand intersecting at a price point.

Not supply, demand, price and “endorsements from StackMe”

Your comments targeting me are starting to remind me a lot of the "Law of Holes"... chill man, I liked the set and said so, end of story.

Please tell me what I did wrong? I made an offer and got attacked. Consider it rescinded now obviously.

You broke the TOS of the classifieds and then started on the offensive against the seller and other members. Offers via Private message is the method to use going forward and starting fights with sellers and other members isn't usually met with kindness in return. Especially on their own sales post.

I feel more stupider after reading this. Pretty sure I just added my first person ever to my asshat list. Free bump for @shorticus

 

[RedToBlue]

You feel more stupider? That grammar is rich with irony...

So thankful for the ignore feature on this site….

I don’t even know what’s going on on this post anymore.

LOL

I’m officially going to break the set in 2. I’d rather 2 people each claim half and we can agree on the split or we can split them right down the middle. Either way, split prices for 500 chips will be $675 each, and I’ll update OP in shortly.

My apologies for the derailment.

 

[shorticus]

Final Week Bump. These go back on the shelf next Monday.

I have half the set accounted for. We just need one more person to complete the split.

 

[David O]

This is a great set. I ran the Group buy on these and once had a set. Wish I held tourneys!

 

[Mojo1312]

An alternative breakdown for parties interested in the chips:

25s - 180
100s - 180
500s - 60
1000s - 120
5000s - 60

And

25s - 120
100s - 120
500s - 40
1000s - 80
5000s - 40

Damn thread shiner!

Is it considered good form to pad the thread with 'omg this is a great deal' when you have no intention of buying?

Na its considered a compliment. The classifieds is a casino chip gallery of sorts for some of us who love seeing what's around the place. This sale has great pics which deserve to be appreciated.

 

[shorticus]

5 days until these hit the shelf!

Read the threads. Many of us post “why are these still here” etc, etc… It’s very bad form to step out in the threads when you’re relatively new.

Like someone mentioned, if you want to make an offer do it via PM. Like I’m saying, I’d step cautiously if you want to be a real part of what’s going on around here.

By the way, a very large number of threads in classifieds right now have potential buyers posting offers ITT....

I’ve never seen one.

 

[merkong]

@Tommy @David O please come get your newbie.

And hurry. They in danger.

 

[merkong]

I don’t know about anyone else but I’m watching now…

Love to see this beautiful set go though if not just to see the thread close.
