Damaged Card

Just got the email we all dread....used a group sub on this order so Director of Ops reached out yesterday with the following message:

**"Hey Rynoe,

PSA damaged card 2020 Panini Absolute Jordan Love #162 on line 154 of order code TOP-13. We're currently working on the payout, but in the meantime I need to know if you want the card back raw, graded as authentic only, or graded as a PSA 5. Please let me know.

Very best,"**

Accidents happen and thankfully this accident happened on a lower value card in a bulk order but is kind of a kick in the teeth considering this order was registered on 11/20/2020 and seems to just now be in the actual grading phase.

I will post a scan of the card when / if it ever gets back to me slabbed up in a stunning PSA 5 holder....

    Sorry this happened to you. I feel like this has been happening more often lately.

  • Definitely seeing more and more people complaining about this issue, but when you grade more and more cards with graders lacking tenure things like this are bound to happen.

    I am happy that this was at least addressed on the front end instead of receiving back a random 5 grade and having to play the game of "huh how did I miss that.....wait no there's NO way I could have missed that"

    Feels like I am in an abuse relationship and I am just making excuses for a partner (PSA)…..never thought I would be happy about getting a "PSA LOST CARD" email but at least I have some sort of idea that the cards are still being looked at......

    terrible luck all the way around. especially w rodgers out and love in this weekend. be very curious what type of value they are placing on the card. looking at ebay sales a ton of love cards are moving today w some exponential jumps. some nearly up 100% from where they were just this morning. best of luck and sorry to hear!

  • @blurryface insane timing....less than 30 minutes after the damaged card email I see the news roll in about Rodgers.

    Thanks for the kind words, hopefully the other J Loves in the order are being treated with a little more care!

    ive been in your shoes more than enough times, so i know the feeling. at the very least you should get free grading on the card, the replacement value, keep the card and free shipping back on the order. a lil different w a group sub, esp w regards to free shipping back. there will be a little leeway w the value. i would definitely start gathering comps for that negotiation. i would not let them justify date of submission, last months or even last weeks sales as valid comps.
