Sweet...I popped my "Ignore" cherry today. Never thought I would do it and there have been some nasty asshats on here before too. When you start using some of the terms that this pos has used, there really is only one way to handle them...but violence isn't in my nature.
And sorry @dmoney , you have every right to be frustrated and thank you for posting.

Interesting question! I think if enough time has passed or another opportunity arises, it's perfectly fine. Just communicate. Some sellers might get miffed, but I would not.

Too bad you didn't get the chips. I have had some days and nights of tension like this before as well.
Honestly I do find it somewhat shady ethically to buy chips super cheap like this and resell here though. I have done it as well, and I will keep doing it, and while I agree that it is the sellers responsibility to research the proper price, I can also appreciate the fact that it can be hard sometimes for less tech savvy people to find this forum. Let's say old people, or people inheriting some chips they don't have a clue what is. It does sometimes feel like taking advantage of ignorant people, which is not always the best feeling. I would be bummed out if someone backed out on a deal like this too, but honestly I also find it very understandable.

If you're still looking to sell that set, there's a guy here with an open ad looking for a set.
https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/small-cash-set-mid-quality.61742/
Nope, we had a transaction and it went great it was extremely pleasant and then you noticed I had my account set to private (really does nothing but makes someone click two more times to view everything) and you got all... and told me off like a kid who was having fun too close to your yard#2, I believe.
Not going to lie — feels like this thread is going to be the inspiration for the next group buy. Karen aka @FordPickup92 would look great on the Cards Mold from the same factory as the Scrub Donkey chips. Are we going with traditional or Cali / Karen colours?

I only skimmed this train wreck, but let me get this straight.
@dmoney puts up a post to warn others... "I had a deal with this guy, he backed out after the money was sent." Somehow, OP is vilified for being an idiot and sending money to an internet stranger (on the assumption that whatever amount it was, OP couldn't afford to lose) and/or for lowballing the seller (despite offering more than the asking price).
OP, good lookin' out. The rest of PCF, I hope sniping this deal was unintentional and I hope that someone here gets those chips. Actually, no, I hope the FB/eBay seller ends up stuck with them. Anyway, OP, glad you at least got your money back, even if the deal did fall through.

Wow. I’m not kidding in the least when I say this would be pretty amazing
you’d have to do power ranking of all the Karen’s to determine each denominations inlay though

Okay I vote cali/karen colors
Brilliant! I'll run the group buy, offer the chips for a quarter of their actual value, collect the money, and then close the gb.
Once the chips arrive, I'll just refund everybody's money and list 'em on eBay.
Then you'll see a bunch of sheltered middle-class white people crybabies club meetings!

Picks it up the week after selling with a spare set of keys “hey sorry found someone willing to pay $500 more, here’s your money back. Good luck getting home!”
I think this will work best if i cut a deal with @BonScot to design the inlays, pay him, have him later back out of the deal, and just end up with blank chips from the manufacturer.

No, he's "villified" for having 0 self/social awareness trying to take advantage of someone who has no idea what their chips are worth, then being upset that the person doesn't want to sell them for next to nothing and ends up returning his money. Then he posts it here "warning" everyone how terrible the seller is creating further competion driving the prices up even more making it a bidding war.

He literally sold this guys chips for him by making this thread. It's so comical that it almost seems planned, have we all been had?
You bastard. Take this crap off my poker site and back to reddit where it belongs.
Please don't change this one bit. The number of inlay design rules you're breaking just sits perfectly with the theme.
Don't tell me how to live my love language, Schmendr1ck!
I slightly disagree. Need to add Karen's phone number for maximum effect (and inlay design faux pas).
