I bought an ungraded tobacco card of a HOFer from a dealer with 99.8% feedback and nearly 3000 positives. His auction states that he STANDS BEHIND EVERYTHING HE SELLS 100%! However, I sent the card in to PSA for grading 3 weeks later and it came back as being trimmed. Although it seemed to measure or come close, the corners were the suspicious part. I usually can catch trimmed stuff pretty easily.

I contacted the seller and asked to have him refund my money. He got nasty with me and asked me why I waited a month to contact him back. He claims that the card was on consignment and he's already paid the seller.

So, I'm left with a trimmed card and out my money. I feel that he should be knowledgeable of anything he sells if he's going to "stand behind everything he sells." If there happens to be a problem, he needs to back it up. One month is not a long time considering that it needed to be sent to the graders, graded, and sent back. Am I off base here?
