I sold a card (old judge) on ebay to a fellow board member in a GAI holder that was immediately submitted to SGC and deemed rebacked.
I immediately offered the buyer a refund, contacted Baker and he basically said NO PROBLEM. SEND ME THE CARD, I'LL PUT IT IN AN AUTHENTIC HOLDER. YOU SELL IT AGAIN ON EBAY AND I'LL SEND YOU THE DIFFERENCE. This would mean I didn't lose any money due to GAI's initial error right?
After several MONTHS of me calling, emailing and not hearing from GAI or Mike Baker, I finally got the card back in the new auth holder.
I sold the card again on ebay in the GAI authentic holder, contacted Mike Baker again with the balance so that he could send it to me. I NEVER HEARD FROM HIM AGAIN until I saw him at the National. When I asked him where my money was, he still maintained that he would send me the money within the next month or so.
Of course I never received the money. Of course I'm foolish for trusting him.
The End.
