Yeah, it's kind of unethical, but you know what, it wouldn't be the first time it's happened.
Just to tell you how ruthless some collectors are, I once saw a relative newby post on another forum about a rifle he saw at a local gun shop. He described it with pretty decent detail and gave the price. Someone reading that board looked at person's profile, saw where he lived and called the gunshops in that town and bought the rifle out from under the original poster! The original poster related this as he found out when he called the dealer back and was told someone from out of town bought the rifle using a credit card. I learned a lesson that day. What you did wasn't in that league.
