robLOL! Theres no "jury" in small claims Court, and I didn't claim that non delivery couldn't be proved, just as a practical matter its not going to happen.
Kyle is good for a laugh with his explanation of his "deal". Based on what he has mentioned, here is what I imagined happened: The seller had listed a group of cards with a photograph/scan. That picture had a Cobb, Young, Mantle ect in what ever lot of cards was being auctioned. That superstar wasn't mentioned in the listing. The T206's, E90-1, Goudeys ect were described as something like "1910's cards", 1930's cards ect. Finally, the seller could had put the cards in the wrong category. So those cards are not going to show up in a search. Kyle gets seller to end auction early at a low price, yet much more than what the bid is at, as the cards have been listed for 5 days with low bids in a week auction.
Now, the seller was probably new enough not to realize that there may had been at least 2 snipe bids set so he would get much closer to the actual value of the cards, that he had witten a lousy listing, and could get much much more than what Kyle paid. IMO, the seller should had ended the listing early and relisted with a better description, it'd remove the possibility of a pest like Kyle from the picture.
