Problems when dealing with Kruk cards

[mechanicalman]

I bought a 48 Jackie from them after they had marked it on sale. After paying, I was immediately given a refund and the transaction was canceled. I called them, and they told me they "lost" the $4k card in inventory. Sure enough, it was listed for sale at a higher price a week or so later.

I can't stand the lying. If he had made a mistake and didn't intend to sell it at a discounted price, then fine, just own up to it. Life goes on. But the lying is a special kind of unethical.

I gave them a negative and moved on.

I have no comment except to say anyone giving an opinion needs to have their full name in their post, or be able to have it obtained from their post. Thanks

I bought a 5000 count error lot form them. Wrong backs, blank front/backs, and other print errors. In the description they listed the different types and years of the errors but not how many of each type. I was putting together the complete 1982 Topps wrong back set at the time. The lot said it contained some. When I received the lot it didn't have a single 1982 Topps wrong back card.

When I contacted Kruk cards they just said "too bad, if you don't like the lot send it back". They also expected me to pay the return shipping. It is the only negative I have ever left on eBay. I have also never purchased another card from them.

I'll just add, to even things out, that I've done business with them several times (not in the last 3 years) and never had a problem. Maybe it was luck, or maybe they've gone down hill since then. Don't know.

The card is a rip off in itself, Sean, since it shows Mantle whiffing on a Gibson fast ball rather than hitting a home run 😉

I've noticed that as well. The home run was off Barney Schultz, but the picture is from a different game and Gibson is pitching. It is a great looking card, though I didn't realize that Mantle was not only facing a different pitcher, he was also striking out.
