Re: Filing a claim with USPS - First timer needs advice
I have been having more trouble lately than anytime I can remember with package delivery times. I have had a few Priority packages take a week or more. The USPS tracking recently changed to where it will just say "In route to destination" instead of following step by step. Frustrating and cost me a coin to an ebay scammer.… -
Re: EBAY sellers not putting the qualifier in their title.
"The Big question I have is: "who thinks this thread can hit 200?" (inquiring minds)" So far 23 of 33 of sportscardtheory's posts have been in this thread in support of the scam and scammers who purposely omit the qualifier in the item title. He's befuddled as to why so many potential buyers feel this practice is… -
Re: Another seller to avoid on eBay
At least this isn't one of those douches that started their own "grading" company like Graded Rookies Authenticated, and prints stickers to put on a screw down holder that contains an obvious poor-fair card and he gives it a 10. It was a little rude I guess, but you were expecting him to be upset at the offer anyway. I… -
Re: How many sellers leave feedback on sales as soon as payment is recieved?
I almost always leave feedback as part of my packaging/shipping process; it's just easiest to do it then as I'm printing packing slips, labels, etc. The only time I don't leave feedback first is (1) zero-feedback buyers -- too many scammers out there to take chances, (2) low-feedback bidders from "problem countries", and… -

Re: Does anyone know where I might be able to sell this gold or how much to sell it for?
You cannot imagine how many scams and scammers we have on this board. We are a public board so anyone that wants can come, join and offer to sell. We members are a pretty tight community for that exact reason. That is why I suggested you get them authenticated by PCGS, NGC, ANACS or ICG first before attempting to sell. You… -
Re: Ebay # 200225062737-- Alert.
Wade, the guy who is selling the card now, closed the auction early today. He was going to take it to someone he trusted to look at it for a 2nd opinion. The guy must have told him it was no good. I remember Plifter being heartbroken at a possibly trimmed card for $3000. Can't imagine finding out I bought a fake card for…
