    My opinion, it’s wasn’t because you told him you were a reseller. It’s because you kept explaining your thoughts on how you were going to resell AFTER he already committed to selling them to you. If I’ve learned one thing over the years, after the agreement on price has been made, pay and take possession. Anything that is said in between that CANNOT benefit you. It can only hurt the deal. Aside from that, he was already unsure about selling due to his story with his friend at the end. It was opening a wound for him.

    Stop going to yard sales and telling them that you’re a flipper. The minute you say that, they pull back their items and then they flip out there phone and go to the Bible of EBay and they’ll start taking tags off of their items. That’s why I don’t even bother with yard sales half the time anymore. Why go to a yard sale if you’re gonna charge eBay prices? I’m better off just staying in bed and shopping online in the comfort of my own home.

If it's because he offered too little that's unfortunate because that's what happens at garage sales and swap meets. It doesn't hurt to ask.

    I don’t think it was really the reseller bit that hurt the deal. I don’t mean this negatively, but I think you talk way too much at garage sales. You’re giving people way too much information that they don’t need to know. If you’re interested in some thing, give them the money and walk away and move onto the next garage sale. That’s what I always do. And if I ever score, anything good and there’s other people around, I immediately take it to my car as fast as possible and then I continue looking around.

    You are totally disrespectful to that seller and you got the nerves to name your videos "Yard sale Karen goes too far"
    The cards in question were not yet your property and were considered collectible. Despite this, you handled them roughly while examining them.
    The better shape the cards are in, the more they are worth.
    It appears that you were more interested in securing a cash deal than in showing respect for the seller and their property.
    Your behavior was unprofessional
    I urge you to reconsider your approach and conduct yourself in a more respectful and professional manner in the future

      Certainly, I have extensive experience in collecting various types of cards, including Magic cards and sports cards. This expertise allows me to provide informed insights into the matter at hand. Were the cards in the box organized within binders?
      Although you acquired the box at the end of the transaction, it does not imply prior ownership until the financial exchange is completed.
      And your ego that you have, with its focus on yourself and how you didn't get it cheaper than you did to fill your pocket from his hard work collecting it, tells me how much respect you deserve yourself (NOTHING)
      Your self-centered perspective, prioritizing personal gain over fair respect or compensation for the collector's hard work, raises concerns about the level of respect you accord yourself.
      You would have profits 📈 anyway
      But you were greedy 🤔

    Long time serious collector here, I am not a reseller, so I am acutely aware of what people’s intentions are, judging by the way the video creator was handling the cards so roughly , without care I am so disgusted by it , resellers destroy the entire hobby . Yet they drive up the value of the cards. I just want to say that just because the cards are in sleeves and they’re in a protective binder doesn’t mean they’re invincible and you can just manhandle them anyway that you want you have to be gentle with these carbs because any tiny little Ding is the difference between 20$ and 500$ it’s important to approach cards with care especially if you aren’t familiar with them , otherwise you are throwing money away

      For real. I was into Marvel trading cards in the early 90s so my friends and I all had our own collections in binders. It's just common courtesy to go through people's stuff with care when you're looking at it. And if you're looking to buy it then you should be even more careful so that you don't risk damaging something because it might end up being a card with some real value to it. The seller probably decided that his collection was more valuable than some quick cash.

    You have to understand that for him that collection is important and holds a special place in his heart. To you they were a price tag and he had a lower price for the kid because he wanted someone who appreciated his collection more than someone who is just going to sell it again. It’s hard to sell a collection you’ve been working on for years. I’ve been collecting cards for a long time and I’ve thought about selling a couple times and it’s so hard because it means something to you. I’ve given insanely expensive cards to kids because I know what it’s like to have that rush of getting a good card. A lot of the comments are bashing you without really explaining why it went down the way it did and I’m not bashing you because you didn’t know but when it comes to something like this it’s okay to make an offer etc but just try to remember that whatever you’re handling may be something that means something to them and instead of telling them that you don’t care about it and just want to resell it. Try asking them about it. Watch their eyes light up as they tell you all about how they got this one card when they were like 7 and have kept it all this time. They will be much more likely to sell to you if you are genuinely interested. Even if your plan is to resell just remember the love and care put into these collections and things like that. Treat it like a story time and less of a business deal. You’ll see what I mean

    Good video, but I don't think he needed your advice on how to sell his stuff. Ebay is definitely not the only way to sell. He could sell those on Marketplace or Whatnot just as easily, not to mention 12 other places.

    Damn I’m a vendor at my local market and yugioh is big. You messed up by spending too much time deciding. No one cares what you do. Usually when I’m selling and someone is yapping on and on that’s a huge red flag. Don’t call that lady a Karen she was ready to buy those cards for her kid he just didn’t want em. And honestly I hate flippers they’re obnoxious when they try to beat you down on the price. Only good thing you did was offer the guy some selling advice.

    People that find out you resell and decide they dont want to sell it to you is so fake. Hes not going to sell them and he will just sell them to someone else later that day. Id just keep the fact you are a reseller to yourself. The lady was sour that you were making a deal on those and not her so she ran her mouth like a sore loser.

    Other people can really suck - and it is great you are honest - but less is more! Just negotiate prices and no seller needs to know what you intend to do with anything you buy! Being brutally honest is not always the right route to go! And she was definatley out of line - when I see anything I want I pick it up and hold onto it to prevent issues like this - you already made and offer and he accepted - you should have picked it up right away! Live and learn!

      @@americanarbitrage I enjoy your presentations and information. People are just ruthless and you took the high road for sure - so sad to see her demeanor over some cards - and glad to see you eventually got them - since they were offered and sold to you in the first place. It is great to see you so forth right about you business and intentions, but it can sometimes interfere with your goal - to be profitable! And the other side is that sellers drive up prices when they know resellers are showing up - which effects us all. Looking forward to your future post! Here is hoping you never run into the likes of someone like her again!

    Am I the only one who felt like she was trying to bully the teen into saying she wanted the cards. The teen obviously 🙄 didn’t give a dang about them. If the woman wanted them so badly she should have bought them herself but no gotta have the drama. Ugh 😑 I feel bad for that teen I’m sure that woman Carrie’s on about her not buying those cards for weeks
