Beware of surf city sports cards online box site
I got took for $273 and I know of another who got took for $1100. Im sure theres more.
I should have known better, said a refund was on the way but instead he just deleted my account from the site. Good thing I have USAA
We are filing with the FBI internet fraud division-hope they shut him down

I would- if he gives you the "my merchant risk management" dept placed a hold on the funds, or gives you a bogus tracking number..... he deleted my account and I noticed he changed his phone number to a 1-888 number.

RE: Beware of surf city sports cards online box site
Damn I placed an order early last week and found it odd that I had not received shipment notification by the end of the week. I sent an email on Sunday night asking about the shipping status. I thought maybe I would get a reply in the next day or two but I got an email from a guy named Jim about 10 minutes later saying that my item had been shipped and that I would be getting it this sometime this week. However, no tracking number was provided. I asked for a tracking number and have not received a reply. Crap man...why do people do stuff like this?
Anyone have any advice on how I can get possibly get my money back? I used a credit card.
What a drag... I'm never going to carelessly buy something on the internet ever again. I saw the price and just jumped all over it without thinking twice. How dumb of me...

If you used a credit card all you need to do is contact your credit provider and let them know whats going on. They should refund your card

You can get a charge back from either your credit card provider or the merchant services provider.. either way start with and email requesting your funds back and why... then file with the BBB and you will get your cash
