This thread has some poor housekeeping...

"Maybe interested" is not a clear declaration of interest. That was on the 21st of February.
No updates since then. Is MariosMSX getting the board? Are the seller - buyer negotiating? Noone knows.
Then we have on the 3rd of March a price drop (a crystal clear sign that the "maybe insterested" business went down the drain).
On the very same day there is another member declaring interest, waisting his time with pms only to find 2 days later that the item was sold to the "maybe interested" party.

That's not the way we do things here, superbonio and/or mariosMSX should have updated the thread. Practically after the price drop - an indication that no deal was made - the first in line is sir_beaker , there are no other posts declaring interest.

Please - both the seller and buyer - re-read the rules, declaring interest MUST be very clear and any change of that and/or queue should be posted. That way our queue protocol is held and other members don't waste their time.

Superbonio sent me a "reminding" pm and wrote "are you still interested in card, because i will make a price drop" and i wrote to him "how much is the final price?". When he told me about the final price that he will put, i told him "OK, i will charge the card and i will pay", but i replied the next day, so he had already put the price drop on the initial thread.
If there is a problem, superbonio can refund the money i sent him and the card will go to sir_beaker.

^ That's why I called this "poor housekeeping" ...
superbonio (preferably) and then you could just update the thread with your established interest. What if sir_beaker (assumption here) is mad because the item was "stolen" from him? He did nothing wrong really.
I respect the fact that you agree to let this go and get your money refunded but the point is that this kind of poor housekeeping just adds confusion, clutter and consumes time from members and mods.

I forgot to post in the thread that mariosMSX is still interested but that the reduction in prices.
So actually my fault but mariosMSX to 1 in the queue.

Just remember to update you threads in the future. The rules exist so everything works for the best and avoid situations like these.
