Another Battlefield?

New Battlefield policy could be no return on graded cards, although I don't think they handle many.

Big surprise there! I just checked her feedback and there is no mention of it??
I guess some don't bother or something else like a deal was struck to avoid this?

Also, as an aside, has anyone ever read her neutral feedback? I am no expert when it comes neg/neutral feedback requirements and what constitutes what but, imo, most of her neutral should definitely be listed as negative!

So I think I found part of their problem. I'm at the show today with a pretty low budget. My buddy and I were at this table. They had low end $5 and $1 bins. Plenty of hofers from 60s-70s. Ending up getting a bunch of stuff under $100. So I did an eBay search on one of the cards I bought and what do you know. The same exact card is on an active listing. I look up the other card that I got for over $20 and what do you know that is active too. No bids on either card but anyone could bid and I actually have the cards.

To further the problem the guy who was running the table left his 15 year old and 12 yo (guessing their ages) to handle it all. They recorded the price I paid but not the actual cards. So not sure this guy has any type of inventory control whatsoever.

I will say though on a budget I had fun at that table. I still wouldn't buy from them on eBay. They didn't have a sign indicating who they were.
