CosmicSpeed Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/ebay-launches-authentication-for-trading-cards-301467143.html I don't sell many cards over the range they are proposing right now, but some of them are in the lesser range that has been proposed to take effect in a few years. Honestly, with posts like these: How can one really know what the 3rd party will do upon receipt OR whether they have the legitimacy surrounding their inspection processes.

Purely coincidentally the username looks like someone named Biden misspelled his own name.

Might be worth seeing if you can recoup a little from UPS/USPS/Fedex with a claim for the damage (if insurance is included). I tried it once with USPS and was successful, although it arrived in slightly worse condition than a crease or two. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bold-Arrow Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 This is amazon not eBay but hey misery loves company. Sold a phantom and buyer returned as not as described, fine whatever. Got the set back, looks great on the outside, seals were in perfect condition but the rattling was suspicious so I opened it. Wanker has somehow glued it shut and reapplied the seals perfectly 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May have some shelf wear that can include scratches, creases, dings, dents, stressed seals, cuts, ect...." Not that would matter to some select buyers. No box included is the way to go. If I’m in a good mood I’ll send the box “extra”. Of course someone still messaged me asking why isn’t there a box 🤦🏽♂️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine by me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how you can handle this with Amazon's policies being what they are. 6 hours ago, Bold-Arrow said: No box included is the way to go. If I’m in a good mood I’ll send the box “extra”.

To be fair to the customer, she double checked the auction, realised her mistake, paid me the postage cost to send the box and left positive feedback.

keymomachine Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I listed my old Steam Controller and Steam Link the other day and got a decent offer which I accepted, then the guy messages me today (before I'd bought the shipping luckily) and asked if we could cancel so he can change payment methods, he'd messaged directly with ebay and they couldn't help him. No problem, I thought, I'll just relist it at the price we negotiated and he'll rebuy it so fast that it'll be fine. LOL, no. Someone else managed to buy it in that two minutes it was listed. I explained the situation to the interloper and he agreed I could cancel it, so now I listed it stupid expensive and we'll just do a best offer. What a pain.

Darth_Raichu Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Everyone bend over and let eBay stick you with fee increases, starting March 1st, 2022. That's right folks. eBay's CEO needed his Q1 2022 bonus so bad, he had to force it out of the sellers. He was even gracious enough to give us sellers less than 3 weeks heads up. eBay finally beat Amazon on something, as Amazon announced their fee increases 3-4 months prior to the change. eBay's business model: sellers pay more for the privilege of watching glitch fest 2022. https://community.ebay.com/t5/Announcements/Your-Winter-Seller-Update-is-here/ba-p/32683868 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
