Re: overseas bidders - ebay question
I also agree with boopotts. I've shipped many times outside the U.S. with no problem, and bidders outside the U.S. tend to bid higher because their options are more limited. For anything $50 and under, it's worth it to me, especially if their FB is good. You can get burned just as easily by a scammer in the U.S., perhaps… -
Re: Question about ebay scams.
If you change something on your account, doesn't ebay send you a notification? Also I believe CC information is blanked out. Also if stuff was listed under his id, wouldn't he get a notice sent to him that an auction started? Maybe I'm giving the scammers too much credit, but that scam seems like a waste of time. -
Re: Need Advice
I would say if you put delivery confirmation on the items, then tell him tough "luck". He received the cards and the grades as you described them. If the holder is horrible, then maybe he has a point, otherwise tough "luck" once again. Don't let scammers pull these BS on ya. Did you put delivery confirmation on your… -
Re: Yet another AT Doctor, this one even more blatant
Then too there is the consumer protection division of the U.S. Attorney's office who along with the postal authorities have been known to prosecute even less blatant examples of fraud and deception. Notice how many scammers refuse to use the U.S. mail (Fed Ex or UPS only) just to keep themselves away from the U.S. mail… -
Re: Just talking....
I wonder if doctoring of raw cards has increased with the TPG shutdowns. While not infallible, TPGs must catch a legs proportion of the scammers’ subs. Seems that this nefarious activity can proliferate easier with so little grading opportunities did strong raw cards that are not part of the premium segment of our hobby.… -
Re: no more crack & resub?
don't get me wrong, i love the idea that they are using previous scans against new submissions. but it can also prohibit and encourage certain activities too. scammers gonna scam. each card should be taken at its current merits. resubbing a card does not equate to it remaining in its previous subbed condition, for better… -
Re: Is David Lawrence Rare Coins a legit place to buy from?
I don't know of any coin dealers that have reviews on their website (I suppose APMEX has reviews of bullion products, but that's a little bit different). And let's be honest for a second. If reviews saying "these guys are great!" is all it took to prove a site is legit, wouldn't all the scammers just add their own fake… -
Re: Ebay tire kickers and non-refundable PP fee
We just recently had a posting from someone who got ripped off on BST and couldn't even file a complaint on PayPal because they used Friends & Family. The only reason BST seems safer is that there isn't the volume that exists on eBay for the 0.1% scammers to be visible. It might be a little safer if you stick to people you… -
Re: This eBay listing takes the cake
Listing has been pulled...There are some wild and crazy listings on the bay....When I used to frequent ebay, I saw some real funny ones...and, there are (or were) some strange categories as well...I remember back in the mid to late nineties, ebay was a fun venue, and there were good deals and not many scammers. Cheers,… -
Re: New hologram holders for PSA
Recently there was a boardmember that purchased a PSA 10 Joe Montana Rookie on ebay. Turned out the card was more like a PSA 7 and the scammer printed a fake PSA 10 front flip and slipped it in over the original. So the back hologram would still show. Having the front hologram will make the front flips harder to fake.
