Mickey7Mantle7 I happen to collect both Jordan and Mantle too that's pretty funny. From my experience buying Jordan's on Ebay for 10+ years you just simply can not expect the ungraded cards condition to be better than NM-MT, I typically bid assuming the card will be NM. It sounds like some of the cards you received may have been worse than that and I can understand complaining a bit. But like the Warp Speed and the Scoring Kings, there are very very few BGS graded 9 and above which is what it sounds like you're expecting. I'm sorry but it's not going to happen, of the 1000s of ungraded Jordans I've purchased off Ebay I'd bet less than 50 would grade BGS 9.5. I just want you to be realistic in your collecting on Ebay no matter what the seller says.

Also, some tips.
-If the seller does not state "item pictured is item received" you need to ask if it's the same card. It's definitely not illegal to use a stock picture.
-If you only want mint condition cards, you need to ask for some large scans front and back.
-Be very careful of sellers who do not show the entire card with their scan, there is a reason why.
-Always look to see if a seller describes how they will ship it to you (i.e. w/top loader, cardboard, bubble mailer, etc.)
-Lastly if you're buying ungraded cards on Ebay your thought process should be more of "I just want to cross this card off my want list" not "I want to buy this card and then send it in to be graded a BGS 9.5".

Hope this helps you in future purchases. By the way, I buy/sell on Ebay under the same username I'm sure we've run across each other on some items. Funny to "meet" someone else buying the same cards.
