I will say it because I don't expect anyone else will.
I think it was out of order to take advantage of the guys obvious lack of knowledge and vulnerability in taking the seat off him for €350 and 10%.
I know people will say it's a cut-throat world and all that but just because the guy didn't know any better doesn't make it ok to steam in and totally exploit him.
Punters Lounge must be a trainwreck of a forum,i'd have thought any moderators there would have at least made the guy aware of the kind of money he could ask for for the ticket.
Glad he gets a bit more due to you getting a good score in it at least,but he shouldn't have had to rely on you binking to see that kind of return.
/pissing on your parade
TBF the guy didn't lack knowledge and vunerability what he lacked was time. He was prepared to go to Dublin but a couple of days before he had problems that prevented him going. When he contacted Paddy they said he had until Wednesday morning to do the transfer which gave him a day to find a buyer. Also any buyer was on short notice to arrange flights, accomm etc.
On top of this the guy had expenses in his package that he kept and he was given
more
than the deal he originally wanted, everyone was happy, so whats the problem?
[ ] good read grimstein
Well this certainly paints a better picture than the op,if there was these time constraints then fair enough,I blame Cos for trying to over-dramatise the story in the op personally.
Oh and wp,nice score.
he never told me he had expenses Brian. Led me to believe it was just the bare seat he won.

Before making the comments some of you have made I think you should have taken into account that the Romanian student who is a member of Punters Lounge is quite capable of reading English and may see these posts on your forum. He may well have let his seat go for less than he might have got but for some of you to then insult him is a bit rich IMHO.
I did post defending him colu but for some reason my post has been deleted
I'm not sure why? as it never mentioned the R word ??
(sure would be nice to know why)
Brian, there was a big ruck on this thread this morning
you must have posted in the middle of it, sorry let me try and fetch it back
It seems every thread that greekstein starts causes a ruck
Can we ban him pls
History? Care to explain?
Bumder is just joking flops.

I'll do part 2 later this evening, just on lunch at work atm.
I don't feel I ripped anyone off or behaved poorly in the situation. The guy had the information readily available to him about what the seat was worth and what he could do. Why should I say 'maaaaate sell it to me for more than that'? Guy is a grown up, not my business to be telling him to sell it for more.
Btw Murph are you the guy, who along with Walshy were anti-railing railtard in a final online a while ago?

No,not my style at all.
I got a fairly abusive pm from railtard accusing me of the same thing and didn't have a clue what he was on about.

No prob lol.
I heard there was an argument on this thread between you and him and he was convinced you were a guy called Murph / similar that was going off at him in chat one night.
Anyway, glad you gave your opinion on the thread. Made for interesting thought but I still feel I've done nothing wrong.

Yeah there was(as he was talking to me thinking I was the guy you are talking about)
I have pm'd him back asking where the chat thing happened,but he's not replied yet.
And yeah like I said BAM's post cleared up a few things with regard to the buying of the ticket.

Trip report
Brian Martin somehow ends up on the wrong forum
Constatine robs romanians
Cos flies to dublin with tighty
Cos wins some €€€€€€€€€
Cos flies home, survives, we all sigh.
Turns out Cos & Brian Martins IQ's multiplied together makes them a combined pair of imbecile idiots.
