    has anyone ever gotten such a good deal

    that you feel bad about it?

    quite a while ago I got a speedy, a robin and a riddler for 5 bucks each at a flea market. i kind of felt like i should tell them the value. I didn't though.

        I found an old TYCO G.I.JOE Train Sealed at a flea market for $10.00 and when I got home I felt so very bad for not saying anything, so I went back the next day and they had the TYCO R/C Trucking G.I.JOE set open,but complete and I paid 2x what they asked for it (Again $10.00 so I paid $20.00 and still walked away happy as hell!

            lol! same here, Getting that Mr.Rock for $50 and selling it for $2500 was the best feeling ever

            I would feel bad if I ripped someone off, but if they list it at that then it's not my fault. If I don't take it the next guy will

                that's the way I feel about it also. if they have an item they need to look into it before they sell, if they don't ... it's fair game. But if I had someone come up to me and ask, then I would feel the need to be honest.

                      Never.

                      Because it's the seller's fault for not knowing the value, and not valuing it more than they do.

                      I am in the business of knowing what I have, and what it is worth. It's just a side business, but one day I hope to make it my ONLY business, and when that time comes, I will have to maintain stock. The only way to do that is to know more than the people I'm buying from, as well as to know just who it is I'm selling TO.

                        I've never done such a great deal, but if I ever did I certainly wouldn't feel bad about it

                            I found an almost complete McDonaldland Playset from REMCO 1976 on friday. I felt as excited as a kid again. Not guilty at all!
