Its not against the rules however its much easier if you can do a paypal payment. One its quicker, two very easy for both parties to confirm it being sent and received. It also allows the host an untyped address to ship your cards to from the break (eliminating any transcription errors). last but not least - you as the slot holder have some protection from paypal if anything goes wrong with the break.

I'm not sure how many Bowman Draft breaks there are going to be. Houdini has done the most & largest bowman draft group breaks. We just did 5 cases of 2011 Draft & 5 of 2010 Draft. We couldn't do more than 5 of each because we couldn't get any more as blowout was cleaned out.

As soon as my Museum break is done I was planning on doing a 5 case snake team draft. You would draft your team for each case. Thoughts?

Here is the real problem.

Someone pm's you and asks to pay through the mail. Like this:

You agree... that is mistake #1.

They take 2 spots and you put them in the break... that is mistake #2.

The time for random comes and you either have to make everyone else in the break wait... or you trust the guy to pay.

You can see where this is going, right?

Instead of making everyone wait, I decided to trust this new member. I requested the random BEFORE his payment arrived (let alone cleared)... that is mistake #3

Well, he doesn't get spots #1 and #2 with his 2 spots. (#225 and #423 out of 516)

Can you guess what happens next? You can, right?

So what is the moral of this story?

When you see this, have ample time for the payment to arrive or just say no.

Sure, he's a wretch for what he did, but I was stupid to allow him the room.

I won't be making that mistake again.

Seems worthy of a negative I trader to me. If they pulled a good spot that cash would have been in your mailbox tomorrow I'm sure.

BTW really doesn't seem fair Houdini has to eat this because we are all impatient and wouldn't have waited so whatever he doesn't recoup from selling I'm in for throwing in a little PayPal to get him even for this. Anyone else? He puts in the time and effort the least we could do is throw up a few bucks.

Wow, I just saw this. What a chode the OP is. That's just straight up BS. Why do people have to take advantage of other's trusting nature?

What about a 10 case break of bowman draft that only has like 30 slots in it and its a snake draft . Like around 270ish for slot count. That way everyone could get a auto slot if they want to.
