strictlymint.com - now This is a Good Ebay Seller

Recently won a $6 raw card from Mike Carville - strictlymint.com. Got card today and it had a surface crease. Too much of a hassle to return a $6 card, so I emailed him just to let him know he erred on the grade (advertised as NM+), but that I would just keep it. Shortly thereafter, I get notice that he has refunded my paypal payment. I did not expect or ask for that. He just did it as the right thing to do. It is refreshing to know that there are still ebay sellers out there who take of their customers. Unfortunately, it is pretty rare these days.

Wow Kurt

Thanx for the story - with all the negative stuff about sellers - this is nice.

And, IMO, there's way more good ones than bad.

It's just the bad get the press.

Think about it - how often does someone come on to say - I bought ABC from Mr XYZ and it went just fine?

Thanx for sharing

Thats human nature to talk about negative. One basic rule of thumb if you upset one customer they tell 13 people. If you please one customer they tell no one.

I bought from strictlymint before and the cards were better than expected. Maybe my expectations were low but I was really happy with what they sent!

Outstanding point - and so true.

It's a great place to do business with. I have his site bookmarked in my favorites and his help and great deals have helped me put together my complete run of Topps sets from 1980 onward. He's also going to help me complete my semi-master 2007 Topps set. Simply a pleasure to do business with.

I have been dealing with Mike for about 8 years now.

Great seller AND buyer

thanks for the tip Kurt- I just bookmarked them and hopefully can finish off a bunch of Heritage.

Maybe to balance a lot of the negative stuff, we can post a list of guys we've dealt with positively. A few of mine:

martyspsagradedcards.com
scottsdalecards.com
Set Builders
Jay Wolt of qualitycards.com
707
BBCard Exchange
Shoebox
Joesvintagesportscards.com
Larry Mayer
Baggers sportscards.com
Rustywilly.com
luxuryscards
Zardoz51 (on ebay)
Mark Macrae

those are just a few of the bigger dealers, I'm sure I've missed a few. Add in tons of regular guys on ebay and here as well.

WarHoundR69 · September 15, 2007 2:14PM

Here's a few that I found to be great to deal with, on Ebay:
1. Bob Willey
2. Mark Finn
3. Coney Island Sportscards.
