MEANS: We want buyers to get what they thought they were getting, we want sellers to feel confident that the buyer’s going to be happy with their purchase. At its simplest, it’s making sure that when someone buys a Kobe Bryant, they get a Kobe Bryant and they don’t accidentally get a LeBron. It prevents mistakes from happening, too, which are always frustrating.

So, let's see: The card shipped is not the card listed, and the buyer who thinks they're buying a 1951 card gets a 1935 card instead.

They can't even meet the most base level expectations of the service. What a joke.

So in your opinion, Ebay should have returned the card to the seller and refunded the buyer?

You can just ask the buyer in this thread, if they actually thought they were getting a 1951 card.

I HATE that I'm defending Ebay here but.............

I think the spirit of the policy was fulfilled.

I still think it's a stupid service that will eventually just turn into another cash grab for Ebay.
