Jay ned had a few items that i was looking at notably a 55 pack and a 52 pak and I passed. Why do you ask? For some reason some of you guys think I am defending this guy when all Im doing is waiting to see how it all plays out. what part of that do you not understand?
look at the feedback. The guy who claims he never got his stuff has PVT feedback....the negs are from some guy named jerk with 0 feedback. the pos feedback left as of late are from guys with high feedback. One guy claims he paid and the next day was hit with a non paying bidder thingy..tells me that NED quite possibly did that to the wrong transaction. LETS all just wait and see how this plays out is all I ever have said.
I understand everything you have said in the past. I think your actions of not bidding on his auctions is a good indication that you didn't trust him. Actions speak louder than words. That is all I am saying.
NO JAY I passed cuz the price went higher then I was willing to pay. once the 55 pack hit 200.00 i was out of the running. the 52 also went higher then i was willing to go. U assume alot.
Jay - Steve It appears to me that you guys are saying similar things - the guy is messin up - the fact that he is selling them for someone else is irrelevant to his culpability.
You both are good guys pretty much on the same side of the fence talking like the fence is between you IMO.
Looks like we can take the noose from around Neds neck now. card feeedback is starting to roll in. I will of course keep watching.....
what struck me as funny was the guy who claimed Ned didn't know coins saying "Dude they all have different die marks" when in fact he should have said mint marks. what a weired bunch of auctions though. just when it looked like the guy was a fraud he would get redeemed and vice versa. Must have went back and forth a few times. I wish the 2 packs he had for sale that i was looking at did not go above what i could spend. Steve
I cannot believe that the 20 racks with McGwire got + feedback. I thought many of you were certain it was the same scan PA_outdoorsman used. Interesting.
I guess he did have all this merchandise which is a lot more than many were expecting.

It was the same picture as paoutdoorsman, or the second version of him, don't recall the name.
Hate to continue this thread, but did anyone notice QUACKCARDS buying pattern, skips months and months at time, does that seem odd to anyone? I do not know what to think on that myself, I am not a long time Ebayer.
Perhaps "nedsk" sold many legit items? That doesn't change the fact that he sold me a completely resealed wax box of 75 Topps Mini's! If he didn't know they were reseals (selling them for a alleged friend?) then he should have done the right thing and offered me a refund or exchanged them for the real item. It was a very unethical/dishonest business practice for him to just deny the problem even existed! I spoke with Ryan of "Wax from the Past" and he indicated that the Wax Pack he was waiting for didn't show because "Nedsk" e-mailed him and said when he was packaging the wax pack it fell open? He then refunded Ryan's Money! So he refunds Ryan for one 58 Topps wax pack to cover his rear from a knowledgeable unopened wax pack card dealer, and keeps my money even though I had the same problem with my wax box? (This fact that I was sold resealed packs from "nedsk" has been confirmed by Ryan and Steve!) Simply pathetic and irresponsible on the part of "nedsk". It is good to see that many people that purchased the coin items were not ripped off. But, I am still rather skeptical about positive feedback regarding the unopended card material. One item was a sealed case. There were over a dozen alleged unopened 75 Topps Mini Wax Boxes sold and there is feedback for 3 of them last time I checked? Mine and the dual purchase by another buyer. Where's the rest of the feedback on all the other boxes? Why no offer of a refund on mine when he has confirmation from experts that they were resealed packs?? That in and of itself is unforgiveable!
I sure as hell did not say the guy was an angel! I was just disputing that it was the scam of the century. mini i am truly sorry about your auction the guy should have refunded your dough (that goes w/o saying) please do not feel that I am on his side. i just was simply disputing what afew here were saying.
the pack dropped and fell open huh? lol
edited to add: what would a 75 mini box sell for if bought from Steve or Ryan? more then what you paid from Nedsk?
boy, she disappeared from movies and television fast. That caused me a lot of pain ,and brings me back to a rough time in my life. Could you show us another "picture" to brighten my day? lol

I was a high bidder on a '75 box from this seller. the next day I received a very disturbing email from a ebayer stating I was going to get ripped-off from this guy.
He told me his wax are all 're-packs'. And if I go thru with the transaction, I would get 100% "re-packs". I was really "shook-up" over this email.
I had just mailed out a ckeck. I went directly to the bank and put a stop payment. I then emailed the seller: nedsk, forwarded him a copy of the email I received. I told him I stopped payment on my check and NOT to deposit it when he receives it!
nedsk, was "bent out of shape" when he got my email. He told me he "would take action against me", "we had a contract", "blah, blah, blah". He told me that the "email I got was from a dissatisfied customer that was trying to get back at him".
I told him, I had to respect the email, because it was from an ebayer with excellent feedback, and I could not afford to take any chances. I offered to pay for any ebay listing fees, etc. that occurred.
He NEVER emailed me again, NEVER reported me for non-payment, NEVER took any action against me.
Here's what I did notice:
Spent time going over his past transactions. He was buying many raw 1958 Topps material (ex/nm-mt, etc.) for a buck each. Guess what? He also bought a 1958 Topps wrapper. Guess what? He sold a 1958 Wax Pack for "all the money!".
I also noticed he was buying lots of raw 1970 Topps baseball (commons), guess what? He was sold 1970 Wax (I think box and packs? not sure).
I felt really lucky, that I bacdked-ot in time, and really hoped that his '75 wax boxes were legit, for the sake of all the others who bought these boxes.
I hope, for your sake SoPhillyFaqn, you do receive your wax box, and it turns out, not to be "re-packs"
Here is a copy of the email I received around 6/9/05:
Dear rbdjr1,
Hello I am a long time collector of unopened material and I can tell you Those Packs you won on E-bay from nedsk auction for 1975 Baseball packs are re wrapped and searchewd and not any good he has tried selling them 2 or 3 times before and E-bay shut his accounts down a few years ago!!! He even started listing is new pack auctions as Private so no one could warn his new bidders!!! You are definately getting ripped off if you buy these packs!! J & J Cards
My Goodness! Just read-thru these 200+ posts, what a @-ss-hole this guy is! I'm new here, I wish I posted in early June when I stopped payment on my check to this crook, to let it be known, about this guy.
I was lucky to stop payment. Sorry for the rest, who 'got taken' by this dirt-bag!
Let me get this straight, your the #1 set registry holder for a main stream set and have never posted here before? You get an email from someone you do not know and on that basis alone you back out of a deal and then come to the conclusion that this person is a crook? Are we really to believe that NED bought up lots of cards and wrappers and made all those boxes? you sold me Im in.
Steve

Steve D, you got it! The first time I've read the message boards here was a a week or so ago. I'm so sorry that my "recent appearance" here bothers you. I didn't know that being a #1 Set Registry holder (i.e., '76 Topps and '61 Nu-cards FB) requires me to chat on the message boards.

Welcome to the boards. I knew I knew the name from somewhere - I believe we've bid against each other a few times. You'll like it here, and don't take anything anyone says too seriously, except myself.
rbd is a great guy, ive bought alot of 1976 cards from him before.. im really glad he's now on the message boards..
personally, i think some people were out to sabotage this guys auctions from the start, as PAOUTDOORSMAN.. as i said several pages ago, i was never 100% convinced paoutdoorsman was a scam.. and with more and more positive feedback coming in from legit ebay accounts, well.....
I didn't call this guy (i.e., "nedsk, the crook"! LOL!) when I received an email from a fellow collector and ebayer. But I was really worried that I was going to get ripped-off for over $1,100!
One has to take seriously an email, even from an unknown (who is active on ebay with close to 900 positive feedacks (99.9% rating). Who states that he knows that nedsk, "re-packs" wax. And I was going to get ripped-off.
I called this guy (i.e., nedsk) bad things only after reading over 200 postings here. When I read that another winner of a '75 wax box, got "re-packs" and even sent some packsw off to a "qualified third party", and the "qualified expert third party" also stated that these '75 was packs' were re-packed.
I don't care if a whole bunch of coin people gave this guy positive feedbacks, or even if he does get positive feedback from card folk. he still at a minimum, seemed to "re-pack" some 1975 wax!
Plus he buys '58 commons, buys '58 wrappers, then sells '58 wax? (OK, one + one = 3! LOL!). He buys lots of '70s commons, then I see a 70s wax for sale (No, one + one = 4! LOL!)
Steve, all I wanted to do was to respond to the original post here (i.e., SoFLPhillyFan), who asked, "if there was anyone else that bought a '75 wax box from this guy".
With well over 5,000 positive ebay transactions, I never before received an ebay message from a fellow ebayer stating I was "getting ripped-off". That was a first for me! I'm glad I took his message seriously. I saved $1,100!
I hope this guy "slips on a so-called original uncirculated roll of silver dollars" when he gets=up in the middle of the night, worrying about jail time!
I have no idea when you decided that "this guy is a crook" I certainly can't reafd your mind. I explicity implied that you did here in your post, thats all.
Steve D
hey i thought we were gonna make nice?
ya I saw the coin feedback too.......the psa10gold one is the one I was waiting for. especially after we were told that the pack fell open and bla bla bla.
"qualified expert third party" also stated that these '75 was packs' were re-packed.
where the heck did you see that??? you saw that from the same person that probably emailed you, the same person that just 2 days ago told us that Ryan (3rd party) had his pack dropped during packaging and it fell open. and that he got a refund.................well today Ryan left pos feedback for that item.
Steve hart never to my knowledge came back and said anything... the poster said he did.
I did not purchase anything from our friend ned. Started this thread because I was considering bidding and wanted other informed opinions. Thanks to all of you I did not lose any money. There were too many variables here to gamble on his product. I buy to sell and finance my collection, but do not have the room to blow 1 or 2K.
Also, I am not the person that e-mailed rbd about the 75 mini's.
However I will take credit for beginning a very long thread and providing everyone with some good entertainment. If you feel like waxing nostalgic, look back at the different conversations and how we have arrived at this point. Healthy debate, and some solid smack talk is what drives this board.

Hey - I'm glad it turned out well for "most" of the buyers. Most times and I'd say virtually everytime we are correct in detecting scammers. Sometimes it's an easy call - sometimes it's a tough call. But we call 'em as we see 'em and let the chips fall where they may. Turns out this guy seems to be more of an incompetent seller than a scammer. In any event, if I had to do it all over again, I would still call it the same way based on the available information at the time.
And I will never buy anything off this guy. I don't deal with incompetent sellers on ebay - especially for the high dollar value on some of those lots. You might "escape" with a deal once in a while, but I definitely believe in the long run you'll lose money, and probably a lot of money, buying from ebay sellers of this type.
As for one poster's comment that some people "were out" to sabotage this guy - that comment is preposterous. We "were out" to help other members here from getting scammed - nothing more and nothing less. Again, most times we are right regarding scams. That's not sabotage - that's teamwork!

Well I just received an e-mail from Steve Hart regarding the 'nedsk' 75 Mini Wax Packs. They are indeed resealed packs. Steve confirmed they were glued shut. Of course I already knew they were reseals when I found the wax stained card in the middle of several packs! Not to mention the cards didn't have the pack fresh look to them. Also, I didn't find a single wax stain on a card touching the wax side of the packs? I don't believe that is likely to happen? At any rate, that should clear up most of the skeptics out there. I'm sure Ryan will relay the same message regarding the packs I sent him. Question know is, will ebay do anything about this guy scamming people?
Well at least I was able to warn approx. 15-20 people before the close of his auctions. A few of them had either high bids at the time they e-mailed me or had actually won auction items and had not yet paid him. One person was able to stop pay his check....lol. Another had purchases that exceeded $5,000. Ebay should remove the negative feedback he gave me. Very pathetic this nedsk. He scams me and then ruined my perfect feedback rating? That's the one thing about ebay that makes no sense? Why let retaliatory feedback stand if one side can prove the feedback is retaliatory? Do any members out there believe it's time to call nedsk's local police and file a complaint? Being the US Mail was used by nedsk on this transaction.....couldn't he be on the hook for mail fraud as well?
To those who think there is nothing wrong with nedsk and/or paoutdoorsman...Maybe you want to explain to MiniMaster how he didn't get scammed from this seller! Maybe you think Steve Hart is also in on the "sabotage."
Thanks Mike - I'm really not looking to beat up on pandrews or any other good posters here. I've always stated that I've never met a fellow baseball card collector who I didn't like and I sincerely mean that. Now if they are Dallas Cowboys fans, I make an exception to my statement during football season - LOL
NO it is nit good enough for me! no where do i see STEVE HART saying anything. I see a guy who 2 days ago told us that PSA10GOLD got a refund for his pack (That it fell open while being put in a box or some crap) and TODAY the same guy left POSITIVE FEEDBACK for that very item.
For a guy that just fell out of the sky you sure know all about mini and his situation.
<< <i>As for one poster's comment that some people "were out" to sabotage this guy - that comment is preposterous. We "were out" to help other members here from getting scammed - nothing more and nothing less. Again, most times we are right regarding scams. That's not sabotage - that's teamwork!
Steve >>
it is NOT preposterous.. yes, you were out to help other members, but anytime somebody emails the bidder of an auction to tell him you think he's being scammed, well.. it's called "sabotage"..

im glad you're not looking to beat up on me, SteveK.. in fact, don't even mention my name in one of your posts..
this bidder gave positive feedback, but the "back of pack" looks "a little opened" to me!
I hope I'm wrong, for psa10gold's sake. I hate to see him paying $621 for a recycled wrapper and a 47 year old piece of bubble gum (oh yea, and $5.00 worth of xf/nm '58 commons).
$621 sounds cheap for '58 wax?
p.s. I wish this bidder would send this pack to Steve Hart

I understand everything you have said in the past. I think your actions of not bidding on his auctions is a good indication that you didn't trust him. Actions speak louder than words. That is all I am saying.

If I assumed a lot, I would assume you were defending the guy.
It appears to me that you guys are saying similar things - the guy is messin up - the fact that he is selling them for someone else is irrelevant to his culpability.
You both are good guys pretty much on the same side of the fence talking like the fence is between you IMO.

Well put Steve.

Steve aka Win, is neither apologizing nor advocating for Ned - I think he just wanted some balance and let this thing sort itself out.
There's no doubt that Mini got a raw deal - however, from what I can see, there's a ton of great deals to be had also.
The whole thing was a crap shoot - to those who lost? I'm sad to see it. To those who won? Congratulations!

For a guy that just fell out of the sky you sure know all about mini and his situation.
JMO nothing more nothing less.
AM I the only guy here seeing thru this crapola?

<< <i>As for one poster's comment that some people "were out" to sabotage this guy - that comment is preposterous. We "were out" to help other members here from getting scammed - nothing more and nothing less. Again, most times we are right regarding scams. That's not sabotage - that's teamwork!

it is NOT preposterous.. yes, you were out to help other members, but anytime somebody emails the bidder of an auction to tell him you think he's being scammed, well.. it's called "sabotage"..
Please ask Mini to show you the email.
saying he has one, well Im not buying it.
Steve
just doing my best to add some balance to this thread.
<< <i>Thanks Mike - I'm really not looking to beat up on pandrews or any other good posters here. I've always stated that I've never met a fellow baseball card collector who I didn't like and I sincerely mean that. Now if they are Dallas Cowboys fans, I make an exception to my statement during football season - LOL >>
im glad you're not looking to beat up on me, SteveK.. in fact, don't even mention my name in one of your posts..
1958 Wax won by psa10gold
this bidder gave positive feedback, but the "back of pack" looks "a little opened" to me!
I hope I'm wrong, for psa10gold's sake. I hate to see him paying $621 for a recycled wrapper and a 47 year old piece of bubble gum (oh yea, and $5.00 worth of xf/nm '58 commons).
$621 sounds cheap for '58 wax?
p.s. I wish this bidder would send this pack to Steve Hart
