%#$@!! ebay'ers

for the second time this month, and for the fourth time this year, an ebayer has screwed me. And not in the good way either. I am sick of how ebay favours the sellers and does not give buyers any recourse.

This is the most minor of the four, but it ticks me off just the same.

I found a Bowman Chrome Draft super parallel XFractor shiny glow in the dark #'d to /199 of Braves outfielder Jordan Schafer. BIN for $1.99.

Sold.

Here is what I got in the mail today.

Notice any problem? After contacting the seller, I am more than welcome to return the card, at my expense, for a refund of my purchase price, less S+H. To summarize, I pay a total of $6 to get my $1.99 back, with no card to look at.

Perfect.

This goes along with the guy who sent my 30 '71 OPC baseball cards that had been trimmed with scissors. Badly. They were tiny. And mis-shapen. Again, return them at my expense for a refund, less S+H.

The previous two were sellers who did not deliver the waxboxes I had purchased. One proved that he had sent it. (to the wrong address) The other said, but had no proof, that it was returned to sender and wanted another $20 to ship it again.

Both times, ebay did nothing. I'm going to start selling on ebay again, but buying elsewhere.

See Upper Deck???

A card of Kelly Johnson..... with a picture of ... KELLY JOHNSON! It's not hard to do at all.

I just don't understand how it can be this difficult.

Team name? Check.
Player name? Check.
Spellcheck? Double check.
Correct Player Photo??!?!???!??! Check.

Read and learn Upper Deck.... Read and learn.....

NNNnnnnoooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The new stuff is out. Everybody is going crazy. Yadda yadda yadda.... I decided to wait on Topps, and maybe pick up a box of Upper Deck. I'm collecting the '08 football, and the '08/09 Hockey, so why not?
This is why not!
I first saw this on Automatic for the People... thought it might be a fluke.... went trolling on the 'bay, and found this....

This is why you don't have sticker autos!!!! If you can't hire anybody who has actually watched a ballgame in their lives to be able to tell the difference between ball players.... at least the player could say," uh.... fuckwit? you sent me the wrong cards to sign...."
