    Card never showed.... just the damaged envelope in the plastic bag from the postal service with an apology.

    The question is where on the floor is the card? No, rather its how did it go out the door, in his pocket or backpack?
    Sad. Hope you get your full refund. Its so blatant they just tear it right down the middle and oh well sorry.

    Although, packaged like that the seller should know better.

    Card enclosed. What a genius.
    All your money won't another minute buy.

    Its so blatant and obvious with arrows pointing to the valuables, that I would have been worried it was an FBI sting and would have been looking for hidden cameras. But maybe Im giving them too much credit.

    Not a question that you'll get a full refund. Buyers on eBay are bulletproof. Sorry that you didn't get the card that you wanted.

    Thunder Bay...just North on Lake Nipigon I caught an 8lb 1oz Brook Trout and it's on the wall. Also bought some OPC cards on the trip. I was about 12 at the time. I hope you get your money back!!!

    Maybe this one?

    It's the only sold one from Canada on ebay. I'm guessing the op was waiting for awhile from what he said. This one sold in late August.

    I have requested a refund. Just waiting to hear from seller. Here was the original auction (lots of scratches on case but card didn't look too bad)

    Good luck. Keep us informed. Unfort I just don't send to Canada or vice versa. Just too many complications, taxes, and less options.

    Seller is an idiot. If he was shipping PWE only 1.20 in postage required. For what he paid - 2.95 - he could have shipped in a small bubble mailer.

    and he had it listed as a 1974 card as well; even if he refunds your money, I hope you still give him the negative he deserves

    I believe that feedback percentage is calculated on the past 12 months....for example, a 1000 feedback seller takes a year off from selling then gets 1 neg on 10 sales when he comes back...his feedback percentage would be 90% and not 99.9%

    Just another ebay trying to micromanage nonsense

    I thought we were talking about a Brett Hull OPC RC this whole time, lol. Carry on...
  • craig44craig44 Posts: 11,457 ✭✭✭✭✭
    What a joke. Guy deserves a neg.

    He probably thinks he was saving money by doing this as his local post office probably gave him the wrong rate for sending cards protected in cardboard and put in a bubble envelope. Because all the contents are paper they can be mailed to the US for $2.95 not the higher rate that most post offices will charge.

  • 1966CUDA1966CUDA Posts: 2,007 ✭✭✭✭
    Sorry for late update, I was away for the weekend. He actually only had one neg. in last 12 months. But here is the update.

    My original email to him which also included the scan of the damaged envelope:

    "Just received damaged envelope with no card inside. Please see attached scan (damaged envelope arrived in a plastic bag from Postal Service). I would like a refund please. -Claude"

    here is his response:

    "This is a post office matter...Card was shipped properly from Canada.."

    This is the kind of seller that gives ebay sellers a bad name!

    Most likely, he is correct in that it "is a post office matter". While I am not a lawyer (but with enough business experience to be dangerous), I am pretty sure that it "is a post office matter" for HIM.

    sigh, so little needed to be done to prevent this from turning into ...this

    From collecting some actor/actress sigs over the years a lot of these autographs that he has up for dirt cheap look FAKE. Well pretty much all of them look fake, anyone else seeing what I am seeing here?

    You were doomed when you dealt with an idiot. You will get your money back. The seller will still be an idiot...................you win.
