Mastros Overgrades raw cards

McKinnly

I just wanted to let the board know that Mastros overgrades raw cards. They do not return phone calls or email mails. They do not take responsibility for their advertising. They have a grader who use to work for SGC and he is an expert? He reviews thousands of cards every year and can supposedly remember every auction. I will never bid on an auction as long as Doug Allen and Derek work there. I will never bid on an auction as long as these two are associated with anyone. They have no integrity. Everyone please look at your raw cards and challenge these people to go the right thing. They are overrated.

Sorry you had to go thru this, but there is a reason some cards are graded and others are not. And they won't listen to complaints about grading, no matter how the item was described. Just the way it is.
What they want is bidders that want items no matter the cost, pay quickly, and go away until the next auction.
They aren't unique- I never heard back from an auction house on the East Coast that totally described an item incorrectly- wrong year, wrong quantity. Called numerous times, wrote, nada. I just never bid with them again and moved on.
There are lots of places to buy cards, someone does the wrong thing it's easy to cross them off the list. Reading boards like this and especially Net 54 will save you a lot of time, money and aggravation.
In general, the best place to buy raw cards is at a show where you can inspect them personally, or from a solid dealer like Shoebox.
