Rating the Auction Sites

Posted By: runscott

I have bought a few items that were "surprised" when I received them from the auction house. At that point I had to determine if I could re-coup my investment, or whether I should instead return the item. I lean heavily toward attempting to re-coup my investment on my own whenever possible, chalking the auction mistake up to experience, and maintaining my good relationship with the auction house.

For instance, I know now that I should only bid "vg" prices for un-slabbed cards graded "ex" or better - I hate to say this, but I have had such experiences with every auction house I have ever bought an ungraded card from.
