<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismania, post: 1904337, member: 28971&quot;]There was an absolute wingnut on the CU forum a few weeks ago, slamming Kryptonitecomics (a seller above reproach) for selling him a slab that wasn&#039;t perfect, a few scratches/scuffs, nothing you wouldn&#039;t expect.&nbsp; Buyer went so far as to say the seller should have had it re-holdered BEFORE selling it.&nbsp; This particular coin was on consignment, so, why is it the consignment seller&#039;s fault?&nbsp; Why is it the seller&#039;s responsibility to get it reholdered??&nbsp; It ISN&#039;T.&nbsp; That whacko was booted pretty quickly.&nbsp; If I mentioned the ebay name &#039;reindeermccoy&#039;, would I be right?&nbsp; If it isn&#039;t, that is one person you will WANT to block if you sell on ebay.&nbsp; Trust me, you won&#039;t regret it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Joe, your buyer sounds tame compared to the aforementioned member, so I&#039;m on the fence as to who it could be.&nbsp; BUT, b*tching about a scratched slab (I can understand if the whole coin was obscured, but chances are slim to none you&#039;d see that)?????&nbsp; This seems to be a problem that is grown legs and this one will begin to run faster and be a more common reason for returns, especially for those with buyer&#039;s remorse.&nbsp; This is only the start of it.&nbsp; What&#039;s worse, a simple SNAD, regardless of return policy, and ebay&nbsp; WILL side with the buyer on this, and I find this just ridiculous.&nbsp; Considering I&#039;ve received submissions back with an already imperfect slab, WTH is a seller supposed to do?&nbsp; I guess you COULD keep a container of Maguiars car polish around, or some other compound to &#039;buff out&#039; the scratches/smudges, but short of that, it&#039;s another way ebay takes more protection away from the seller, which is minimal to begin with. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry to hear this problem has happened to you, Joe, and sorrier (more sorry??? lol) that it seems to be a trending problem with buyers.&nbsp; Though, I DO think that, in your case Joe, buyer&#039;s remorse was actually to blame here, and it was his only &#039;out&#039;....but then again, who knows what&#039;s next with ebay.&nbsp; Joe, I feel for you, I do, but as a seller on ebay, you know you are already handcuffed before you even list an item (I sell, and I know I am, also, and there&#039;s not a GD thing you can do about it)...yet, unfortunately, it STILL remains THE place where the MOST eyes can view it.&nbsp; Damned if you do, damned if you don&#039;t, but definitely damned if you&#039;re a seller.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
