is this company a scam, tradingcardcollectibles

robdijohn · 08-31-2007, 08:18 PM

hello all.
I was wondering if this place is a joke. www.tradingcardcollectibles.com
I ordered $9600.00 worth of cases over a month ago and have not received them! none of them were pre-sell cases either. i just disputed charges on my cc, so hopefully i get my money back. if anyone has heard of this company let me know or any info will help. thanks.

Well, I can't speak for everyone but I had a very similar experience with that company as well. I ordered about $550 worth of stuff (all in stock items) and had them charge my credit card right away. 3 weeks later and nothing had arrived and I sent them countless emails and tried calling and no one would answer. Finally, I had AMEX dispute the charges with them and I got my payment back.

I had a problem with them earlier this year. They had listed TriStar Prospects Plus boxes at a price about $40/box less than the market price. Ordered 4 boxes and paid with paypal. After a month no product, their "Order checking" link kept saying in process of shipping. Finally cancelled order. If you try calling the number all you get is an answering machine. Also, if you map quest the address, it comes up with 2 different company names and 2 different phone #'s. Same thing if you call them.

BAD NEWS.

another bad thing was they charged me for an extra $2399.95 for no reason. of course i called my cc and i disputed that and all charges. i 've called them plenty times and they promise my stuff is on the way and they'll credit me back for the 2399.95 which has not been done. I hate this situation.

years ago, i ordered 04 Bowman Chrome BB from them. aobut a month after i ordered, i get an email saying that it was on back order and would be shipped to me within 4-6 weeks !!! it was only 5 boxes so i waited. 6 weeks later i got the boxes & a Felix Hernandez Ref Auto.... so maybe it was worth the wait.

Ive heard nothing but long waits and bad things about them.

I ordered 4 cases from these idiots a little over a month ago. I continually called them, and they would say that the cases had shipped. after there supposed delivery dates came and went, they finally admitted to me that they didn't have 3 of the cases, and were going to refund my money. I spent over $7000 dollars, and they started refunding me a $100 one day, a $179 the next week, etc.. Then these idiots charged me an additional $2000 instead of refunding me. When I called them to ask what was going on, a representative basically yelled at me, stating that this is the way all companies do refunds! Really, I never heard of that . Anyway, It's been three weeks, and that 1 case they supposedly sent, and had a tracking # for, still hasn't arrived. I have put in a claim with my credit card company, and I'll get my money back, but doing business(or lack there of) like this just doesn't make sense to me.

Never ordered anything from them but heard bad talk about them.

This is the WORST company of the face of the planet. They are a group of lowlife scammers with so many chargebacks I don't know how in the world they keep their merchant accounts in an active status. One of them must work for the credit card industry or something. I ordered once from them a long time ago when they were still known as Sports Cards Collectibles. Nothing but lies and BS, finally had to file chargebacks with my credit card company and wait for them to process the claims.

In short, these peole are thieves, and should never be trusted. I hope everything works out for you bro, but next time don't fall for the too good to be true prices, and just buy from Chris. Best service around, and I'm not just kissing ass, it's the truth.

I definitely agree with only buying from sellers like Chris. They might be a little higher in price, but atleast you get the product!
