Furthermore, the photos cut off the edges of the slab so any interested buyers who did manage to find the card wouldn't even have the reassurance that the slab hasn't been tampered with. So now I can either run a poorly titled (fraudulently titled actually) and poorly photographed auction or I can pay hundreds of dollars that I was allegedly saving through the vault to have the card shipped to me so I can list it correctly.

0/10. Do not recommend.

Oof! What a mess. Thanks for the heads up. Definitely will not be using the ebay vault
