battlefield0516 t206 on ebay

[Yoda]

I am having an interesting transaction with Battlefieldsd at the moment. I bid and won several cards from her to see if I could spot the photo shopping that seems to be the major complaint lodged against her. In an auction just a few weeks back, I won, among other cards, a '54 Topps Ford and a '69 Topps RC Jackson. The cards were the same as listed on her Ebay auction. Her scans and my loop confirmed that. But the Whitey had a serious ding on the upper left border and the Reggie a tiny corner crinkle not shown on her scan under high magnification. I sent her an email detailing the problem and asking how she would like to handle the matter. No reply, enough already, so yesterday I emailed again that I intended to return the cards for a full refund, would be leaving negative feedback and opening her to the full fury of the Net54 Board seriously, I think this forum has a positive influence on marketplace activities) unless I had some response by today. Nothing yet. Watch this page for further news.

imagine if there were no psa or sgc etc. We would have 1000s of returns and mis characterizations of condition. For the cheaper cards i think some people dont want to deal with going through the process of the return and eat the card... it does appear you will get a full refund and we will see those cards again for auction go for more than they went for when they were originally sold graded.

Quite likely your eBay account will be suspended for threatening negative feedback before the case has settled. She could definitely have your negative feedback removed if you threatened it in advance. If you get a full refund after you return the cards, is your experience still negative, or is it Neutral?
She's doing the wrong things, but you are too.

I think the poster's threat came after he got no reply though when he asked how to handle the issue. I dont see a problem of a least threatening negative feedback for not replying at least.

Bingo!

Not a problem; I was mainly playing Devil's Advocate. But make sure not to threaten negative feedback on eBay's messages in the future.

Good point, but I made sure in my message only to mention the word feedback, not specifying positive or negative for the reasons you enumerated. I can't imagine the hassle of opening up a case with Ebay over a disputed Battlefield item. Makes me shudder to think about it.

There shouldn't be any hassle opening a eBay case. Open the case, eBay will supply you with a shipping label. Ship the card back. If battlefield doesn't give you a refund, eBay will step in and take the funds from her account.

I don't understand the comment that the experience is neutral. Even if his money is refunded eventually, he was deceived about the condition (disappointment), he was out the money for a time being (an inconvenience) and he received no timely response (frustrating to say the least). His time dealing with this and now having to send back cards at his own expense means he's actually invested resources in exchange for nothing. This is a negative experience, not a neutral one, and other buyers should be made aware. I'm not condoning the proactive threat of a negative, if that's against eBay rules, but I have no idea why anyone would characterize this is neutral.

If you read the feedback, she's notorious for not replying to emails.
