And this is a perfect example of the stupidity of ebay not letting the seller leave negative feedback.

I would like to know how many refunds or partial refunds this idiot has received.

Just take a look at his feedback left for others he had "minor problems solved". with every seller on this page 14 of them and all of them with different sellers.

Added to my block list. Fortunately, I haven't dealt with him. However, I have had similar knuckleheads try this. I've always reminded them to look through the package thoroughly, make sure they haven't thrown an item away, held the line, and provided pictures of the items plus shipping label on an otherwise empty table.

If they persist, I'll thank them for alerting me to someone tampering with the US Mail. I'll let them know I'll be at the Post Office in the morning to talk with my local Postmaster and open an investigation. The buyer usually "finds" the "missing" item(s) later that day.

On the rare occasion on which I involved eBay:
  1. Stick to the facts...NO emotion, name calling, accusations, etc.
  2. Be POLITE...if you go into this with both guns blazing, expect the other side to return fire.
  3. Be PERSISTENT with eBay...don't let someone scam you.
  4. If the front-line CS Rep won't (or can't) handle your case, don't be afraid to ESCALATE it.

Ebay claimed that they are not card experts and it is not their place to really do anything.
If eBay claims not to be card experts, why are we waiting two weeks + to receive a PSA graded card they intercept to authenticate themselves?

If they can authenticate cards without being "card experts" I'd like to know theit qualifications.......

Ebay does not do the authenticating. Graded cards go to PSA. Raw cards go to CSG.

I have not had any problems with ebay buying or selling because I quit them totally in 2005 due to similar problems as these. I do not miss the phonies that exercise their scams on that site.

Yes, I'm not sure of the threshold but any cards over $700? Get shipped to authentication.

Under the current eBay rules, graded cards over $350 and raw cards over $250 go through the authentication process.

They also disclose that it’s “currently” free. We’ll see if that changes, and it so, how much they charge for it.

If you are refering to eBay Authentication then yes, I did recently. Went smoothly:

Listed card on Monday September 19th
Sold on 20th
Shipped to authenticator on September 21, signature requested
Received notice of package received on Friday Set 23
Received notice of card authenticated on Monday the 26th
Payment released to me on September 28th.


As a first time seller (at least of anything of real value) I was happy to not have to worry about the "I never got it/I got an empty box/I got a different card" scammers.

Unfortunately this sale was not through ebay. The sale was through a Facebook group and we completed the payment though PayPal goods and services. Papal has all of the information at this point and the case is still pending.

If eBay claims to not be card experts, what (of the thousands of items they are the broker for) categories are they experts in?

Seems like a blanket statement for anything that is available on their site.

Paul, the seller, has emailed me this morning. We are emailing back and forth. He says you guys got it all wrong. I asked him why he is selling a card he said he never received. We'll see....

Man, this guy’s slow. 1) He still hasn’t figured that we know who he is and 2) it took him over 2 years to found out there was a post on Net54 dedicated to him.

I've been reading this thread, but I didn't realize until after your post (that made me look back at the dates) that it originally started 2 years ago then was revived in September because a different net54 member encountered the same guy. Hard to believe how long this has been going on for.
