Awesome! Love that eBay story!

Great ebay story...even better Willis SPA!!

Thank you. Always, like a GOOD ebay story, unlike the one below. I was stoked with that Willis too....

----------------------------------

So today's "variant" addition comes from the unfortunate files of newbie ebay seller and PWE shipping.....

Bought this on June 12th, paid for it immediately, received appropriate "Fast Payment" feedback. On June 20th, I still hadn't received from "that state up North" and saw that they had received a neutral feedback for a damaged card shipped via PWE. So, I inquired about a tracking #, stating that I paid $2.07 for shipping and I would hope not to receive via PWE and no tracking. No response, so I open claim and subsequently I am refunded my money. I leave appropriate negative feedback (1 of 3 that they now have), on June 30th. Well today the PWE shows up,



.....in a penny sleeve, NO top loader wrapped in "previously" used bubble wrap (meaning no bubbles left for my wife to pop).....



Of course it is creased around all the jersey windows....glad I already have my refund of $3.06 :p

that's pretty crazy! i think you had messaged me on the bay for one of my cards that i was selling as part of a lot. were you able to get that from the person that ended up purchasing the lot?

and should think about scaling back your football collection to just have 264 cards that are serial numbered 264/xxx. then try to find 264 cards of each of the other sports...now that would be a challenge!

Do you recall what it was? I make a daily routine of those messages...LOL.

I am afraid, I can get annoying.

2007 Sweet Spot Dwayne Wright 264/799

This card popped up on March 26th with a $299.99 BIN/BO. I made a couple of generous offers and were immediately declined. I sent a message via ebay to the seller for a price. I cited current sales, he cited potential. So we were at an impasse....

A month later it was re-listed, we exchange messages and no dice.

A second month of 30 day listing and no sale. We exchange messages and again, no dice.

A third month of 30 day listing, with reduced price and no sale. We exchange messages, he offers several different prices, I hold my ground of original final offer. It is finally accepted. I paid more than current sales, but I am happy.

Nice card! What kind of pen do you think the players use on those? It's a weird raised ink (my AJ Green is just like that).

2013 Prestige James Laurinaitis 264/299



This next addition, I tracked down from a "lot" sale on ebay on March 17, 2013. I contacted the winner of the lot in early May, only to find out he was recovering from Cancer in his kidneys. Over time, I developed a personal relationship with Gary and genuine concern for him and less about cards. He is getting better, I was recently able to send him a couple camo set needs and a Bronco surprise pack for his son. I received this one for my efforts.

Thank you Gary, (jetdsb)!
