Want Your Opinion 10A Or 11A On Cover Is It A 100j? What Would You Do With It

Sigh. It is not all that different. I was only pointing out a reason why the grading organizations do not grade on piece. They also cannot do a full exam without seeing the entire stamp including the back and they do not want the risk or work of removal.

Why is everything an argument. Tiring.

I have some experience with this seller. He is apt to list the stamp on eBay as a #10A, even though it is clearly an 11A. He is also apt to claim it is a 100J even if it hasn't been graded. When a buyer purchases it and complains that the item falls short of the description he is apt to insult them. Not sure how it was done in my case but when I returned an item to this guy, he managed to get it without the tracking data ever saying so. I know that he got it because he relisted the item! Yeah, I got my money... by contacting eBay and complaining that he wasn't issuing a refund, even though he clearly had received the return.

Sinclair are you referring to the op.Thanks m

Yes

Ok
Puts everything into perspective.
Thanks m

Dear Sinclair, I really do not appreciate your defamation of my character! It is unfair and unfounded! The cover you are referring to was purchased from another collector that had put a plating reference number on the frontside of the cover. I CLEARLY stated in the description that I did not know if the number was accurate and I posted the best closeup pic that my scanner would allow. I did not erase the number (now I wish I had) because I thought it might aid someone in plating the stamp. I do not plate stamps, nor do I have the proper literature to do so. You purchased the cover for about $40, and upon receipt made claim that the plating was inaccurate and you wanted a refund. I did not plate the stamp nor put the number on the cover, which was also clearly stated in the description, and I made you and every other bidder aware of that fact! This cover was sold as-is and again was clearly stated that the plating was NOT verified. I did not think it was fair of you to ask for a refund since it was sold as-is. You took a gamble and it didn't turn out the way you thought it would and decided to throw your 4 year old tantrum on me for no good reason! You then ACCUSED me of misrepresenting the cover which I most certainly did not! I refunded your money, not eBay! You were acting very snobbish and quite frankly childish about the whole incident. (you would have thought he had paid $5000 for it!) Buyers that act such as yourself are why so many sellers do not like selling on eBay because it is only buyer friendly. If anyone does not believe me, simply look at my superb feedback on eBay. Seller ID jgoody2shoes. As with all sellers, over time, I have gotten a few negative or neutral feedbacks, all due to BAD buyers! Most are from buyers trying to extort me on shipping charges, one actually though I should pay HIS import duties, etc. You guys should take a little time and go over all the negative feedbacks he has left for other sellers. Almost always vindictive and hateful wording! And PLEASE notice, he did NOT leave me negative or neutral feedback! He is simply angry that I blocked him from bidding! I guess due to the fact that I recently sold a few covers he probably wanted to bid on. I have and will continue to block bidders that are caustic, demanding, threatening and/or obtuse. I DO NOT WANT THEIR BUSINESS OR THEIR MONEY! All I can say about the experience is that you were lucky sellers could no longer leave negative feedback on buyers because if someone deserved it, it was you! And now you are still trying to damage my reputation for something that was your fault! All over a single $40 item! You need to grow up and quit being so jealous and vindictive!! I blocked you as a bidder because of your childish actions and your over demanding nature! Please do not post on my articles. And I will reciprocate!

Sinclair, One more thing, you said "you have some experience with this seller". No, you have one experience with me. Don't act like you have several "bad buys" or experiences in dealing with me. You only had one and that is all it took for me to block you! I wonder how many other sellers have blocked you for the same reason? And then you make false accusations and try to steer others into believing that I am underhanded or something of the sort. I am NOT! You state " Not sure how it was done in my case", so you admit you don't clearly remember anything right? And how are you such an expert as to know what I am "APT" to do? I am contemplating legal action! Have a nice day!

That's funny Rog! LOL I reported his defamation of my character. I'm sure that since he is a high and mighty "pillar of the community", it will do no good. It's a shame one must deal with this type of bunk! I thought this was a "friendly" site! He wasn't happy with a purchase, he got his money back and all was good (or so I thought). Everyone makes mistakes, (mine was not erasing that dang number!) but there seems to be such little forgiveness these days. Some just want to hold onto grudges forever it seems. How petty one must be. UGH!!

It's also funny that, in your lengthy screed, you didn't address the point of your not having refunded the buyer despite your having relisted the returned item, and eBay's having to be involved because of this.

Geoff, because it wasn't true. And I did respond. If you can read where I said, " I refunded your money, not eBay!". So, I am now done with this post. Glad everyone else is right and I am wrong. Thanks to all of the nonjudgmental posters. I appreciate how you all can be so all-knowing about me! I am being totally facetious of course!

Just one more thing. Yes I did relist the item after he returned it. As far as the tracking was concerned, if it didn't get scanned, (which happens more often than you would think) is of no importance whatsoever. I refunded his money. What else could I have done?

Sinclair, you apparently don't know the rules on this site. Personal attacks are not allowed! But legal recourse is!

"Me doth think he protests too much"
Shakespeare paraphrased.
Cheers mark

Just to be clear, the rules say no personal attacks. A personal attack is something like 'Don is a theft'; calling out a bad financial transaction is not a personal attack.

Having buyers make informed decisions is a good thing, having the ability to present both sides of a dispute is a good thing. This thread has been educational but it is now time to move on.
