We bought a raw lot from Goldin and relied on their description.

This conversation is in regards to items where the "alterations" are quite obvious in the pictures.

It sounds like you would like to start a different conversation.

I would like to talk about Alden's ice cream bars, but that would be similarly irrelevant.

Obvious to me. Seems like you think so, as well. Apparently not obvious to everyone, though.

With regard to your quotation marks, I have a question. Let's say writing had been removed instead of tape and it was just as obvious to some people. Would the word "alterations" have a different meaning in your mind?

Is that a regional "E" card candy issue?

This thread needs a card or two, and no I'm not showing the backs just in case they have tape residue.

I love that E100!

Doug, I looked into Alden’s ice cream near me.
Bingo only a half mile away, but it all seems to be “organic”, which is a euphemism for overpriced methinks.
I’m passing on the Alden’s, but will heretofore list all my cards for sale as organic.



Thanks Doug

To me a good example of buyers remorse.. Been there but have never done that..

Trust me. I have the diet of a 12 year old who doesn't have parents to tell me to eat my vegatables, and Aldens orange cream bars, or fudge bars, or root beer bars, etc, are the only thing in a Whole Foods that I have any interest in eating.

There is supposed to be No Crying In Baseball.....it’s funny that’s all I see in Card Collectors/Re-Sellers. Lol

Having good pictures does not exonerate someone for a bad description.
Money is being exchanged, everything must be accurate. Some of the people here need a higher bar.
This was an honest mistake and was correctly handled by the seller. If the seller (or another seller) handled it any other way I would not do any of my very significant business there.

As a confirmed ice creamaniac, I must give you the benefit of my doubt. I shall venture into the world of Alden and report directly to you, or near the water cooler.

Really nice E cards, this discussion is why things can get complicated in our hobby. Always do you homework with buying or selling and try and be as professional as possible. Yes - it's just cardboard, but our time ,money and effort should matter both ways.
