It seems pretty straightforward to me. Instead of charging a listing fee, they just take ownership of the card if it can't even get a single bidder for $10. They don't want people sending in their $5 cards. It just creates more work for them but no revenue. It's a lot easier to just say the card has been forfeited to them as payment for their services than to deal with invoicing a customer and shipping the card back. It's just not worth their time to deal with. They probably take a huge box of all those borderline worthless cards over to a local card shop where they get $1 each for them.

I remember seeing a few cards listed in this last auction where I said, "PWCC is getting that one!" lol. One of them was something like a 1987 Topps Roger Clemens PSA 6. I was like, "WTF?" Card probably isn't even worth $1.

However, I'm pretty sure if it was a valuable card that somehow slipped through the cracks as a result of a glitch or misspelling or something like that, that they won't keep your card if you bring it to their attention. I highly doubt they're using it as a loophole to steal your $1,000 cards. We're talking about absolute junk cards here. It seems like a perfectly reasonable policy to me.

Yeah, if it’s the policy, it’s the policy. And there is some reasoning behind it. I just wondered originally how many of the owners of the 2800+ cards that didn’t sell realized they wouldn’t get them back. Even here, people didn’t believe what they read.
