Ebay seller returned cracked out slab

[seff]

Question 1:Why would any card be in a GAI holder? Never really legit.

Question 2: Why would you ever try to sell a high value card in anything but PSA or SGC?

It was clearly already sent to PSA for a cross over, and failed.

I do not blame the buyer for returning it. It was known to be trimmed.

Just my two cents.

Actually, not true, I Still have a few hundred GAI slabs from the early days, that I personally submitted. Why haven't I reviewed them? Cost for me is the major reason.

First let me be clear I agree that the seller had every right to return the card.
If the card had graded 1 at PSA and was not altered then I would side with the seller. The key here is the card has been altered.
Let's say this was a slabbed Autograph in the $5,000.00 range like a Mathewson cut. And was in a JSA slab and sold on Ebay or in any Auction. Then buyer decides he would rather have a PSA slab sends it in he might even have a PSA auction letter. When it arrives it looks good so they crack it and then under a fold they notice a watermark or a copyright that dates it to 1930. Now PSA knows the item is NG and sends it back. Is the buyer stuck with purchase because the case was cracked? No of course not Alterd cards and counterfeit autos are fraudulent items. And buyers should not be expected to accept them.

If the Card wasn't Legit... Then Why did He Buy it?

i don't Know... Maybe He's Hungry!!!

Not True, The Buyer didn't send the Card in as a Crossover, Crossovers are only done while the Card is Slabbed!
*And the Buyer took that Option Away Forever, Which means it's His Card Now!

Yeah, Why Blame him for Cracking a Card Out that He Didn't Own?
If the Buyer Knew it was Trimmed... Why iN the H E Double Tooth Picks did He Buy the Card iN the 1st Place?

Just my two cents.

Look Closely... i answered your questions!
