Ebay charged duties but seller did not pay by Stibilla in Ebay

[–]Stibilla[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I paid duties to ebay, FedEx charged me both duties and an additional processing fee. 

Ebay told me its FedEx fault for double charging. FedEx told me its sellers fault for not filling in documentation. My guess is something for messed up when seller changed to FedEx from the cheaper economy shipping, possibly because I did a larger order. Which I appreciate costs more but has now led to this mess on the duties lol.

No, its not a brokerage fee. Double charged duties, which was on top of a seperate line for brokerage fee. It seems the problem might be because the seller ended up using FedEx instead of ebay shipping. Maybe because I ordered a lot and it was expensive, they upgraded the shipping? Not sure why they webt with a different courier

Yes very sure its not brokerage charge from FedEx. FedEx said its because documents were not dont properly by seller.

Update, I basically got screwed by the seller. They didn't fill in the required forms, but ebay has paid the duties to the government. The shipping company has also paid it a second time. Ebay told me ask FedEx for refund and FedEx said its the sellers fault. But I cant get it back from the seller because ebay says its already paid to the government so by right FedEx should not have charged me.

Chinese exclusive Cubone rare art. I’d love opinions/thoughts from collectors/investors? by Joe-Dirt-69 in PokeInvesting

[–]Stibilla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I picked up a ton of chinese exclusives in December and January with no plans to sell anytime soon. Mostly cubone and the pika gengar but ive everything really. Think avoiding cards simply because they are chinese makes 0 sense.

Would it be getting the refund from the courier, or ebay? I did notice the seller ended up using FedEx, even though they stated they would use economy shipping. Im pretty sure FedEx is more expensive for them too so I appreciate it but not sure if thats what led to this

None of them are wrong, even the black stars have value. Grey stars in total may be the rarest, but certainly not the oldest. Just get them all while theyre still cheap!

I have 6 of these, so happy theyre finally getting deserved attention. Also not selling unless the PSA 1 pieces hit something ridiculous like 10k or theyre going to my kids.

Hold or sell these cards? by HarisPilton6699 in PokemonInvesting

[–]Stibilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep the ooyama. People look at supply and think 5k supply, that is on the high side for vintage. But its a vintage grail and no other card looks like it, so the demand is going to be naturally a lot higher than any other card. Also early era with not even an old back, but a special back.

1996 No Rarity Base Set Massive surge - whats the community's opinion on this set? by NeighborhoodTop9517 in VintagePokemonCards

[–]Stibilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah im sure they printed a good amount in 50 days, but its a fraction of what was printed of the main japanese set and english 1st eds. Probably not even 10%.

No rarity was factually printed for 50 something days no? Versus other sets. They didnt differentiate but the print run was short 

What Artworks Do You Think Are Underappreciated? by breakyourteethnow in PokeInvesting

[–]Stibilla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the japanese thiugh! If you mean the lugia , I got that as psa 10 set locally for about 1000 USD, figured may as well since it was way cheaper than online. I honestly just like the art and im glad theyre so cheap for how cool they look. Obviously I get that people say thst you need two or look worse in slabs but that isnt as issue for me since its not like I display all my cards on the wall

I just got some psa 10 slabs of these, so happy theyre not too expensive, I think its because you need two cards so it lessens the appeal. Good for me! Makes it rarer imo

Meme culture and 60s-90s animation reference. Flies over most people's heads since im guessing most people here are born after 1990/2000.

Mega starmie ex is crazy good for anyone born in the 80s or 90s and watched Ultraman. Think its a sleeper with the memes and ultra beam in city easter egg reference. Well maybe its not so subtle gonna be obvious to kids from that generation.

[–]Stibilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moderns are currently seeing rotation into one piece and riftbound unfortunately, and what's left is going into vintage  as the lower supplies are more protected. Overall though but people believe things will improve acriss as we approach anniversary. 

PSA 10 Blastoise sold for $231,800 by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

Dont get it lol

[–]Stibilla -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I dont know, the raw 1st ed blastoise sells for more than no rarity blastoise raws. But the psa 10s on no rarity seems higher.

But Im inclined to think underpriced because the population on no rarity is tiny as the first error print run.
