It wasn't about the money I got cold feet and didn't want to sell the sign. I would have liked to got a little more money but that wasn't the main reason I just really had a change of heart and wanted to keep the sign. I did state that I wanted to get more money but that was more of an excuse, deep down I just really wanted to keep it. This happened four months ago and the reason I decided why to not follow through with the sale is not the point. I should have sold it to the winning bidder period and I didn't. I kept the sign selfishly and regret doing so but it was a mistake that I made and I admit and I understand it was the wrong thing to do for multiple reasons. I have said it time after time, yes i kept a sign that sold on ebay and it was wrong and i regret doing so and I paid the price and received negative feedback and also showed lack of character and I am ashamed of what I did because i am not that kind of person. I can't take it back but I can use that situation to learn a lesson and make myself a better man by doing the rite thing no matter what. Like one of the members stated on the thread "A man's word is one of the most important things in life" and I tarnished mine in some of the eye's of members on the site and that really sucks but it's my fault and I'm not trying to make excuses but I don't think you should judge a man on one situation either. I have sold lots of items through different sites and through auctions and I always do good business. I have a lot more happy customers and friends from selling antiques, picking, and petroliana than i do enemies. i made one mistake compared to dozens of successful sales and happy customers so if someone doesn't want to trust me or buy from me for the one time I did the wrong thing then so be it. I have apologized to everyone and have tried to use everyone's advice and move forward from this situation. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has received bad feedback and or made a mistake they wished the could take back. Thanks again to those who understand and sorry to those who don't. I can only move forward from here and hope people don't judge my character over one negative example. I have tons of friends and I am a great trust worthy friend, just because i made a bad decision once in my life doesn't began to depict what kind of person I am. I want to do only good business and move on and learn from my mistakes and continue to do good business always.
Thanks you for listening
