I won the auction and I got it for $18 and some change. I paid for the item right then from Paypal. I never got the card and didn't get my money back. I was new to Ebay and Paypal. I was upset. I trust no one when it comes to selling cards. That is why I always do Bubble Mailers/Small Flat-Rate Boxes with tracking. I have heard about people getting hosed on sales, and it is sad. Then we can talk about trades. I find myself concerned about trading sometimes, because you never know if the trade is going to be a smooth trade or if it is going to be bumpy. When it comes to collecting, I would be considered a small fish in the Big Sea. So most of my cards are cheap compared to some of your collections. So I will start using insurance if cards are $50 plus.

I've done more than 200 trades on this site. I'm not going to say the amount of times I've put DC on a package, but I can say that nobody has claimed not to have received a package. I haven't received 3 in that time, but they turned out to be shady and are no longer part of this site. I had more problems selling a few years back. Not an experience I liked. I just picked up a large lot of Favres and am hoping--praying--that some people on here will want to either trade for them or buy them before I resort to eBay. As a whole, I trust the people on this site more than the idiots on eBay. We're traders. We have some honor. Buyers and sellers aren't kept to those standards, especially when you have some shmuck who overpaid for a card and wants some of his money back and can't be honest about it and offering it to the next highest bidder.
