eBay Cannibalism Question
 

Okay, a question for those of you with, let's say, unconventionally exotic tastes.

I'm thinking of purchasing some of the pieces in this seller's inventory, so am I right in assuming that if I receive any of these 1963 cards without the delicious pieces of human flesh attached to them (and featured prominently in the auction photos), I will be able to return them for a full refund?? Of course, I'm pretty sure that if any of these meaty cardboard delights eclipse the $250 threshold, the authenticator will step in and make sure I rightfully get my money back if there's no tissue and bone in the mailer, right?

Any opinions? I just don't want to warm up the grill unless I know dinner is on the way.

I believe you will need to flesh out your argument in case the seller has a bone to pick with you about getting a full refund.

I tendon to agree.

I believe selling body parts is against eBay's ToS.

With a nice Chianti and some fava beans...Jerry

Wonder if he got Costanza to be his hand model?

I mean. As long as the palm skin flaps are graded by PSA too. You could have skin qualifiers O (Oily) D (Dry)...

You should send the seller a question - not about the cards, but the meat. "Is it tender, is it fresh, would it be best served with a chianti or rose?"

Yes, I believe there was an early case where they shut down an auction of someone trying to sell his soul on the grounds that either souls aren't real (in which case it's fraud to sell something you don't have) or they are real (in which case the auction violates the terms against selling human parts).

Funny stuff. Let's give this guy a hand.

I suggest you forcefully demand your pound of flesh.

He's serious about cutting his inventory to the bone

Thanks for the input, everyone, you gave me a lot to chew on. Turns out my concerns were irrelevant.

In the end, I realized that a hungry belly has no ears and since my appetite was so whetted, I just jumped on the buffet line and immediately bought something off of his menu. It arrived perfectly with all of the delectable pieces included, so two thumbs up (or should I say two thumbs down into my belly?).
He even included some extra...what are they called again???..oh, giblets, for free!! That was cool, so he won me as a future customer.

But if you thought cards on eBay are priced extortionately, try buying this kind of luncheon meat...there's a lotta excess fat in the pricing, but at least it's cheaper than Amazon.

I will leave a 4 star review for most of it, but the shipping was absolutely ridiculous. Save your breath, I know people are going to say, "You got a great cooler out of the deal!," but that's not the point. The proper packaging is the seller's responsibility.

The Igloo cooler the seller sent is a sign of good (Marv) Breeding.

What an amazing thread...

Hope that cooler was filled with dry ice to avoid any spoilage leading to food poisoning. We have to make sure our resident humorist stays healthy.

To be honest, you're talking about a guy who considers the 'use-by' or 'best-by' dates on food containers to be nothing but works of fiction.
