Not much you can do about it.

Several years ago my father was buying 86 Fleer Jordan PSA 8's like they were candy. One came from Kruk and was way off center. Not anything like what was pictured in the auction. Said they must have accidentally sent that one to someone else. No offer to remedy the situation as they claimed it was still a PSA 8. That was when they were only about $500-$600.

Hey Tim, saw some of your nice pack break slots on vintagebreaks. Were you the one who got the 8.5 back on a Civil War News?
I have had great luck with Kit Young in the past; one of my best purchases was their complete T51 set in EX average condition for $900, and I got a White Back 1956 Mantle from them earlier this year.

I wouldn't be angry at Kit for this mistake either, but telling the OP that it's okay to feel that way. I would be more disappointed than upset, unless I thought it was fraudulent. I don't believe this to be the case in either this transaction or the one I had with kruk. Although it's amazing to wonder where a pallet of uncut sheets walked off to.

Kit is good people, and if it turns up, he will most likely contact you first about the purchase. Relax...

I've dealt with Kit a couple of times. Perhaps about eight years ago I bought a raw Walter Johnson T206 portrait that was advertised as VG, but only came back graded a 2 after I sent it in to PSA. So I contacted them about it and was authorized to return it for a refund even after a couple of months had passed since the sale. Very good to deal with.

I had this happen with a purchase from Kit a few years ago. He immediately called me himself to apologize. We ended up chatting for a while, turns out we both had the same 2nd grade teacher- she was young when he was in her class, middle age when I was, but it was a nice conversation and I was quite sure the card was an honest mistake.

Maybe we should start a thread about the awful business practices of Kruk Cards.

They do this often. I would contribute to the thread.

Kit is one of my favorite people to chat with at National shows. From knowing him a little bit I can say most definitely it was an honest mistake.

Lol, I've never personally had any other business dealings with them. But, sounds like others have.

Have dealt with Kit multiple times over the decades now and have nothing but positive things to say about him. Things happen, and at a minimum I'm sure he'll make it right.
