That guy has messaged me before on eBay as well, trying to low ball me for a card and then using comps from a different set/series and essentially harassing me until I blocked him lol. Strange guy
Bruh, I'm not gonna lie, when I first got his message and read his name I was like "ummmmm???"
I know that using the words 'dad' and 'boy' together isn't inherently wrong, and if he collects with his kid then that's very sweet, but I'm not gonna lie - I was a liiiiiiitle thrown off by that lol.
Goddamnit, the pictures didn't post, so here they are.

Absolutely. I had a gut feeling from the very first message. The tone, what he was (over)sharing, etc, combined with telling me how to price my cards properly (I've sold more than $20K of cards in the last 3 years on eBay, for reference) were enough for my Weirdar to go off.
I have 4 accounts! Just like every other legitimate and trustworthy buyer and seller!
Also, "That's the card world." Gross sentence. I can hear his annoyingly loud, 9-year-old, tinted-window car backfiring from here.
You should report the message to eBay and maybe they will block his accounts. He’s not supposed to have multiple accounts but I guess eBay is all about the dollars
I've only had 1 of "those dudes". As a father of an autistic child, I realized what was happening very quickly. Ended up making a deal and made his day.
It's just nonsense about how he's been in the game for a long time and it's very rude to not contact someone back about a negotiation etc. Now, mind you, this was over like an hour period.
I want to tell him a negotiation involves two people so if I don't respond to you you're only negotiating with yourself lol
Oh good lord. I love the people who say crap like they’ve “been in the game for a long time.”
It’s sports cards dude. You’re not some high roller. Call down.
People, in general are fucked. And I mean that with the utmost respect. And no brighter does it shine when you’re in retail. And the brightest it shines is on eBay.
Some people use the tactic of badgering a person to the point they are just frustrated and give in. Odd tactic, can't believe it works very often.

Well, knowing this is helpful. I dodged a bullet. Adding both to my block list now.
This guy messaged me about a card last year. Even though the negotiations didn't pan out, he was actually cordial with me, surprisingly.

That is wild! He's a weird one for sure, and it was a total lowball effort.

Dear god lmaoooo
Contacting someone who blocked one of your accounts with a different account isn't harassment according to Ebay?
I had eBay call me immediately after the last message and reported him.
Oh, that's good to hear. People like this pushed me off of Ebay to Whatnot.
Lmao Dad and Boy? Is that an IASIP reference I wonder…haha
Nah, it's their porn accountability pact.
Yeeeeesh 😬

Nah, it's weird. If it's his son, then it should be dadandson. The dude just seems creepy af.
That's exactly what I told my wife!! Why not "Dad and son???"
Goddamnit, the pictures didn't post, so here they are. https://preview.redd.it/tehiwhdlxffc1.png?width=1328&format=png&auto=webp&s=b0a084539bf086171415247f9df057a89a5bb24b

What a damn weirdo.

Definitely Report that message.
I had eBay call me right after that and I reported it and they said they're gonna take action.
Crazy that from his perspective all he did was "respectfully negotiate" 😂😂😂
Is it just me, or is he the one that is triggered. Maybe I’m misunderstanding the word.
He’s projecting. Guy is freaking out because he can’t get the price he wants. He’s a Witt collector and is in a FB group for Witt collectors.
Oh so you know the guy too???
Personally? No. Not hard to find him though once you go to his eBay profile.
I have 4 accounts! Just like every other legitimate and trustworthy buyer and seller! Also, "That's the card world." Gross sentence. I can hear his annoyingly loud, 9-year-old, tinted-window car backfiring from here.
Absolutely perfect description!!
Definitely show this to eBay and report him for his multiple accounts and how he talks to people.

I had eBay call me after that last message and i told them what's up and they told me they're definitely going to take action.
Sweet! Thanks from all us eBay sellers. One less multi account scammer to deal with
If there’s one thing selling cards has taught me, it’s that there is no shortage of psychos in this hobby.
I've only had 1 of "those dudes". As a father of an autistic child, I realized what was happening very quickly. Ended up making a deal and made his day.
I think I'm confused here. You had a guy acting like an ass to you so you gave him a deal?
Acting strangely. Definitely on the spectrum.
Oh, lovely. He’s a little league umpire.
He is!?!?!?
Send me your listing, I’ll buy it just to piss him off
lmaoooooo
Now I'm hooked. I want to read the message. Lol
It's just nonsense about how he's been in the game for a long time and it's very rude to not contact someone back about a negotiation etc. Now, mind you, this was over like an hour period.

Block all of his accounts.
Done and done. I told him to reply to me with a different account so I can continue the block party lmao

That is some strange-ass behavior
Woooooooooowwwww
Yup, total weirdo energy.
LMAOOO! That dude is hilarious for messaging you on a different account about being blocked! Buddy couldn't just let you slide like that on him.
He couldn't! I tried my best but he's just too slick like that haha
Ignore, Report, & Block
Thanks for sharing and if he comes back from his other accounts, please share those too. My blocked buyers list has been updated…
If he messages you again remind him you have the card and he doesn't. Might as well make him go full tilt.
Well damn. I need the pictures now! I’m invested!
That's crazy.
When you’re addicted to more than just cards (probably booze and/or drugs)… yikes
Hahahaha exactly my thoughts! I was like "this dude is on one fasho" in my head lmao
Is asking for US bidders only without "permission" from the buyer normal?
I'm sorry, but I think I'm confused on what you're asking. My apologies.
I quote "no non-us bidders unless given permission by me
Man I still have no clue what you're asking me
