We have an unhealthy relationship.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-84893363635928365092016-01-31T00:53:51.952-07:002016-01-31T00:53:51.952-07:00In the grand scheme of things it's not really ...In the grand scheme of things it's not really a big deal, but for some reason eBay problems get my heart rate up more than other problems. I'm not 100% sure why. I try to be a fair person because I know that everyone has a bad day from time to time. The seller wrote a nice note after I sent the shipping costs back, so I'm feeling better about the transaction and the card itself.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-59925673216597188602016-01-30T06:16:28.439-07:002016-01-30T06:16:28.439-07:00Ebay.

Good on you for sending the shipping costs back.<br /><br />That's a beautiful card! Stick that bad boy in the tightest top loader you can get and hopefully the splitting won't be as noticeable.

In the end I have a nice card of a favorite player at no cost to me. Now that I've posted about my frustration I can leave it in the past.RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-77302851354134770502016-01-29T20:23:54.367-07:002016-01-29T20:23:54.367-07:00No, this is a different package.

If so, that must've made it even more frustrating. However, you still got a pretty damn nice card, even with the slight flaw, and for free at that. The seller really should have disclosed the defect, even if it's possibly a problem with all relics of the sort.Tony Burbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17916383902665781661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6974740724487938002.post-52978019491322002662016-01-29T19:17:28.295-07:002016-01-29T19:17:28.295-07:00I bet all of the cards with those type patch in th...I bet all of the cards with those type patch in that set all have that gap. So making lemonade, you probably have the best conditioned one of the 25 available and other than a temporary frustration, you got a beautiful for no cost. As for the seller, there is old saying, that's just the cost of doing business. He will be fine, sure he's out the cash, but he will be fine. Just like my Ebay dilemma not long ago, it all works out. Don't box it just yet, leave it out force yourself to look at it everyday and just like that old ugly flea bitten mutt the bad stuff fades away. (That last part is just my warped sense of humor). See you're already smiling.Johnnys Trading Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05202597965281782849noreply@blogger.com
