Marc S.<<BTW, why do some sellers state that there are no refunds with a third party graded card?
Do they really feel that the Third Party is stationed on MT OLYMPUS?>>
Third-party grading facilitates the selling process. If you sell a card and the new owner is unhappy with it - they should take it up with the grading company, not the seller. Or they should take it up with themselves for not asking adequate questions before seeing the purchase.
There are a bunch of INANE collectors out there - and I have known a few ebay buyers who have tried to return graded cards because of tiny print dots on the reverse of a card - or 75/25 centering on the back of a card. If your return policy is too lenient - people take advantage of it. I'm not saying exception cannot or should not be made. But what should happen is this: Fully disclose in your auctions, allows potential buyers to ask questions, and state clearly what your policy is. That way - there should not be problems in the first place. If the seller doesn't ask for a scan of the back of the card - then he shouldn't complain if it does not meet his standards...
