Possible Ebay Scammer? Or Am I at Fault?

[Marchillo]

I see that all the time in listings. I’ve seen a card listed as EX in the title and very good in the description.

Obviously try to avoid that in the future but this buyer is intentional. He intentionally waited a certain amount of time and went through his credit card purposely. It’s a clear PSA 2 good. You aren’t spending $1750 on a card if you don’t know what that is. It’s clear I’m the photo, the title, and description.

It wouldn’t surprise me if he saw the wording differences and intentional planned this all along.

Good luck.

FYI you still have VG on other listings (Randy Johnson BCCG 10). I would just get rid of that in all your listings. Just describe the card with the grade. I wouldn’t even get into what the grade stands for.

I've just reviewed one of my listings and noticed the asterisk next to the generic "condition" drop down menu. Do you know of a method to remove this?

99% chance you will never see the card again. Unless he tries to list it under an alias. At that point I would probably buy the card from him and pull the same crap on him. Probably not right but screw these crooks. I hope you at least get your money back. Absolutely hate scum like this.

When I created listings, I believe it forced me to chose a generic condition from a drop-down box. I dont know how to avoid that, other than to chose the lowest possible condition of "acceptable"?

Choose none of those...choose the BLANK option....the card is a PSA 2......that speaks for itself.

Yes, that would insulate you from the BS claim that it doesn't match condition. Acceptable doesn't appear on any grading service so no chance for confusion.

So this thieving pig has your card and the money? I'd call the police in your area and see about getting them to contact the police in his area and open a case for criminal fraud. I'd also be in contact with the postal inspector to open a mail fraud investigation.

Yeah, this guy stole your card pure and simple. Whatever the generic grade says in the item specific section, shouldn't matter a lick. You put PSA 2 in the title, you have a big ass picture in the description and you have PSA 2 in the description.

Even if you didn't have all that, he stole your card.

30 Ebay accounts? Jesus.........and Ebay doesn't find that the slightest bit suspicious?

That credit card refund scam can work out badly for him. He’s already lied to his credit card company. It’s fraud and it’s grand theft. I would go after him through the police.

I had an issue with a guy who collects a specific photographer's real photo postcards. He left me a negative because he purchased three postcards with damage on the front. He believed from my pics that there was paper stuck to the front of the cards, but there was actually paper missing. I offered to refund if he sent the cards back, but he just wanted a refund and not have the "hassle" of sending the cards back. I refused, he negged me, I called ebay showed them the correspondence back and forth between us and they removed his negative. (btw all you have to do is offer a free return and ebay will remove a negative now). I blocked him and a few months later this guy under a new ID purchased a postcard from me, got it and left a negative. I suspected it was him and found that he'd used the same paypal ID to buy the card. Ebay removed the negative and I blocked his new ID.

Another month or so goes by and he buys another card from me with a new ID and leaves a negative when he gets the card. I call ebay and they remove the negative. I complain and ask them to kick this guy off their platform. The ebay rep agrees, but he says he doesn't have that power. He did inform me though the guy had 14 accounts and he added all 14 of his IDs to my blocked bidder list. I haven't had a problem since then, but I assume the a-hole will hit me again when I list a Sanborn card he doesn't have.
