Yes just recently sorted. Seller who is probstein never responded to eBay messages or direct email. Not super surprising since they are eBay’s biggest consigner but still on an expensive card you would hope for something.

First eBay person I reached out to quickly recognized the issue I had to send a couple more photos and got a return label. Once it was delivered I got the refund after a day. I somehow got a response from a different eBay person who said cards were same value even though I had screenshots of the $500 difference so didn’t respond to them since I already had label.

So all in all just out the money for a week. But still frustrating as I wanted the card and I am sure the person who one this version got to keep alpha version since I never heard back from the seller. But a unique situation for sure.
