His name is Jonat.han We1l and is mark2market53 on eBay.

Message I recieved from him:

Hi, there. I received this card today. The bottom right side and corner of the holder were shattered when I received it and fell apart at the mere touch. I see now that you cropped the photo of this card so that the buyer (me) would not be able to see this obvious problem. In addition, you applied packaging tape to the back of the holder along with a chunk of cardboard for reasons that I can't figure out. So there is sticky goop all over the back. By all appearances, the integrity of the holder has not been compromised, so I'm not inclined (at least for now) to suspect that the holder was tampered with. However, I will need to get this card re-holdered by PSA, and that will cost me money. Barring some tangible, reasonable effort by you to compensate me for this cost and inconvenience, I will be leaving you negative feedback explaining such. Please advise.

Response:

I am really sorry that the case was damaged during shipping. I can assure you that the holder was fully intact, untampered, and undamaged when I sent it to you. The tape and cardboard was to make the package 3/4" thick for shipping rules. My PO here are sticklers for that BS and you can look that up also if you want about thicknesses. I will send you the original scans of the card before I cropped it for eBay that show the holder and card. The issue actually would be the PO damaged the case during transportation to you. I would like to see pics of the card and package. If the case was busted then the package would for sure be damaged. I have shipped and received thousands of cards over the yrs and never had a case damaged in the package that didn't show signs of package damage first. To remove any sticky goop you could use another piece of tape and stick it to it and rip it off till it is all removed or use goo gone or orange oil as they won't damage the cases either. Please send me pics of the case and package and I will be attaching them to this email also. Sorry for the issues and have a good night. I will be awaiting the pics.

I don't own a scanner or digital camera, so it will be a pain for me to get you a picture. As for a package, you didn't send the card to me in a package. You sent it to me in a thin 7"x9" bubble mailer wrapped in clear tape. There is no visible damage to the bubble mailer aside from the thin strip I cut off the top with scissors in order to open it. If the damage happened during shipping, it happened through the bubble mailer. Please advise

Later got this

Here, I managed to get a scan made. Let me know if you can see it OK, then please advise what you plan to do. Regards, Jonathan Weil




Here are the scans of what I sent and what he showed me. I smell fish due to the break looking like a screw driver break and the right edge being frosted now. Looks a bit fishy to me but I am just wanting to see what you guys are thinking and if any of you know this guy.
