What is the nature of the negative feedback?

If it's the same guy/place, I have purchased from them and got lucky as he didn't list the sales tax in his post.

I have looked/watched some of his other listings but the sales tax part of it ruins it for me. He does have some nice stuff however.

Terrible communication. . . .packages stuff terribly . . . .took weeks to get things in the mail . . .was rude and obnoxious . . . blocks people who ask questions. . . whole gamut but seems like he did eventually ship was he was supposed to.

He does disclose very prominently the extra taxes he needs to hit Canadian residents with.

...My favorite item in collecting beautiful eye-candy old baseball stuff was the set of 1953 Bowman Color , until I got this envelope in the mail.... two cards inside.......I may send this in to SGC for grading....

He must do stamps too. A ton of stamp dealers use stamps in bulk to mail stuff.

Mostly because they can buy it for less than face value. (we can too, but with less margin )

That's typically how I receive items from him.

In this case, the stamps cost more than the $3 item declared on the Canada Post label.

I had a pretty crappy experience. I bought a few cards from the seller a year or two ago and when I got them they were not as described. One of the cards had a small tear and a couple of others had significant defects that they didn't disclose. They offer a refund, but you have to pay for shipping/tracking etc back to Canada which is costly. Not the end of the world, but I don't bid in their auctions because I feel like their listings are sloppy. - Robert Dixon

Guy may have problems, but it frustrates the hell out of me when people act like sales tax is an option and I'm choosing to screw them with it. I run a real business, and if you are in PA I HAVE to collect sales tax. I don't get that money, the state does.

I hear it all the dang time from my Nebraska buyers.

WHY ARE YOU CHARGING ME SALES TAX????!!

Because it's the law.
