The COMC representative responded back in a thread on blowoutforums that the cards were not actually for sale. It was due to a glitch in their software that the cards were loaded in the first place. I think it was old stock that was his reasoning.
I wouldn't call this a horror story. Yes, they would have been great flips, but you weren't really out anything. The guys dealing with damaged cards that couldn't get them covered by insurance have bigger problems to deal with.
I bought a 1933 Goudey that the pictures showed a wrong back, so I bought it and had it inspected. When they provided new scans showing that it was the correct back and the image was inserted improperly, I alerted their customer service that their images were showing up inaccurately. They patched the software and that has abated as of now. But I bought they card knowing it could be inaccurate, so I don't feel I'm out anything.
