eBay seller - So angry right now..

[West Oz Cards]

Well, I was looking forward to getting this incredible late 90's era Shawn Kemp 1/1 to add to my collection.

Action was about $180 USD with 1 day to go....

Set my snipe for $1005 USD

Wake up this morning to see the auction ended.
Contacted the seller and he said he has sold it outside of ebay.

that's happened to me before too, so much rage.

 

[OutlawNinja]

Damn sweet card too ... sorry to hear mate.

 

[edac6942]

When i want a card that bad i also jump on outside ebay.
Because they just dont last the auction.

 

[West Oz Cards]

I'd expect that on BIN/BO and I always make contact on those types of listings, but not on a running auction.

I'm sure most of you know that cards like this only come around once or twice in a lifetime.

Its pretty hard to swallow when you miss the chance at a 90's or 00's 1/1

I remember seeing a few sheet cuts without numbering of these sell last year?

Interesting.

It's a shame but yes if it's a must have card you have to contact the seller to confirm if he's running the auction through or find out if he's going to pull it early, happens a lot.

Can't find links, any way to search eBay listings that are older then 3months and in between 12months?

 

[Tanana]

Sorry to take this off topic,

I did find a couple that were sold and are listed below,

Now this seller only leaves feedback once buyer leaves feedback for him, so all the big guns that I did see are not showing up (not surprised) inc Kobe, Duncan, Shaq and yep Kemp,

Now your seeing a few pop up for sale that are either graded or raw with numbering, I don't know but that to me doesn't add up. Why all of a sadden they start show up after the sheet cuts were sold??

These are the only ones I found so far,

yep killing the hobby

 

[Coopz05]

You should send him a screenshot of your snipe set to $1000+

I know that Ive told sellers before that I had a huge bid of $xxx and they dont care cos they think youre exaggerating. But then I send a screenshot and everything changes. Ive had several relist it again when the realize they were lowballed.

Anything is worth a shot

 

[Billyhoyle]

I wonder what he accepted - I hope it was a lot less than your snipe

 

[chris_rimp]

Do u reckon there's a chance that someone bought it knowing they could on forward to u for profit??

 

[ReggieEvansPC]

Might interest you to know that this seller is being suspected of selling a fake Kevin Garnett SPx 1/1 over on BO.

[muzikandme]

Yeah I wouldn't be to upset just yet, seems there may be fakes floating around.

 

[KB.]

I doubt he got more that 1k for it

 

[West Oz Cards]

He reckons it was on consignment and the seller got 2k for it.. hahaha yerright.

Your mate Gia would probably pay it lol

 

[West Oz Cards]

No, I think he would have tried to snipe it like me.

 

[KB.]

that sounds like BS to me.
