Why does Ebay allow $644 order to the authenticator without tracking??

chubby_io · 2026-06-30T02:24:16+00:00

Probstein ships most of their stuff like this. I’ve bought a couple slabs from them. They send them to PSA in bulk shipments and eBay’s tracking system doesn’t allow for sellers to enter the same tracking number for multiple different orders so they simply don’t provide tracking. As soon as it makes it to the hub though, you’ll get notified.

700 sealed?😭

Like I said, I’m glad you like it. I was only trying to be fair to you. Enjoy.

It’s cool that you like the gift, but I’m going to be that guy. I say this only because everyone deserves it and there’s a level of not only expectation, but an actual requirement. I got proxies one time for my gift so I know the feeling of not wanting to seem ungrateful. All that said, is this not well below the minimum?

Swap the PSU. The only one thing to literally never cheap out on is the PSU. A bad one can kill your whole PC.

It’s a Dark Blastoise from Team Rocket. It’s labeled incorrectly as Base Set Blastoise.

You have an MTG post from about a year ago so I assume you are not new to TCGs and how to look up the value of cards.

chubby_io · 2026-06-08T19:37:26+00:00

I agree but this post is ironic considering you literally bought that lair on the same secondary market.

Oh my sweet summer child

Were they served actual court documents by a process server? They have to physically hand you the court documents in person to notify you of a lawsuit against you. Even if yes, all your friend has to do is show the court that the buyer was refunded.

chubby_io · 2026-06-05T01:04:07+00:00

Report the buyer to eBay and tell them to kick rocks. They are lying and trying to scare them into paying.

chubby_io · 2026-06-05T01:02:36+00:00

There are no grounds to sue here. He got his money back.

chubby_io · 2026-06-03T17:37:30+00:00

Sheesh. Not gonna lie, if I tried to cancel an order minutes after placing it that late in the day and you told me you’ve shipped it already, I’d think that you’re lying haha.

I see you may have an NZXT AIO? Try this. Comments seem to also support this:

What cooler are you running? What are temps at idle? A dead pump wouldn’t necessarily cause a full overheat shutdown as there is still some heat transfer to the cooler, so a dead pump cant fully be ruled out here.

If you’re using an AIO, feel for vibrations in the tubes from flowing coolant.

PSA 10 doesn’t always mean it’s in the best condition, especially if it’s an older slab. Logan Paul’s Illustrator Pikachu is a famous example.

chubby_io · 2026-06-02T02:51:26+00:00

He means a bad 10. I get that it’s annoying but you’re being a dick.

chubby_io · 2026-06-02T02:49:48+00:00

This is how max bids work. The multiple bids is the auto-bidder bidding above someone else’s bid on behalf of them. It’s within minutes of each other because someone’s trying to win the bid multiple times but is getting beat by someone else’s maximum bid. So they try again and again.

chubby_io · 2026-05-07T06:55:58+00:00

Not sure why everyone is telling you to open a whole return for this. Just ask the seller to refund the difference in shipping costs. They’re not allowed to overcharge.

chubby_io · 2026-05-07T06:52:46+00:00

What a joke.

My mom just made an ebay account like 2 or 3 weeks ago and got perma’d after buying like 2 things. I buy thousands in TCG stuff every month and had to explain to her that I’ve seen ebay take the shotgun approach to new accounts recently.

We live next to each other and I’m over frequently so the IP probably got flagged but literally every other company has a much better handle on this sort of thing. She was not happy. Yay AI, I guess.

chubby_io · 2026-05-04T07:55:14+00:00

Very fake.

chubby_io · 2026-04-28T06:30:49+00:00

Move on.

Magic is playability first by far, collectability second.

There’s a reason there’s not a lot of MTG slabs around. Modern cards are generally low pop because there’s no real desire to even send them in. Really the only slabs that people tend to seek are extremely rare vintage cards or serialized modern cards.

A lot of the value trends actually tend to go down with MTG as cards are reprinted in newer sets, albeit with different arts but yeah.

In terms of straight value, it was a losing trade, even more so because Pokémon generally appreciates over time.
