I've contacted them before when I got something that was listed and priced incorrectly and they refunded me and gave the card back to the seller to fix. I have had my own cards listed incorrectly and had them fix the issue so they were correct.
Much better post than mine!

Thats life. I havent ask for a refund. Just posting HERE and NO WHERE ELSE so this Pro COMC board doesnt have to worry. This happened on a 71 card order, having to check and click 1000's of pictures to double and triple check purchases wouldnt be enjoyable anymore. AGAIN, if i bought 10 cards its understandable to check and triple check the cards more carefully.

So its justifiable what happened? AGAIN, i havent ask for a refund, just posting what happened and hope COMC doesnt do this to other buyers that are less forgiving then me. This could be posted ALL OVER THE other sports card boards. But it is not. Just here on the PRO COMC thread.

Hope the %'s of errors doesnt get worst at the buyers expense. Eventually this type of quality control(wrong cards,scratched chromes,etc) will catch up and ruin a good site.


If you all think is acceptable to have this errors at 2 per 71 cards, bash away, cause you all know it dont bother me or else i would be on the other forums posting on non Pro Comc sites.


For those that actually are successful business owners or just successful in life, you understand that its better to be told about problems by customers directly before that customer goes out and tells everyone ELSE instead. It gives the business owners the chance to correct the problem before the problem multiplies and does irreversible damage to the reputation of the company.

Cactus, would you rather me hide the faults that i experienced or post them on NON-PRO COMC forums? I can just post this on the other sport card sites if you think that is the better way?

when you look at the small thumbs, it actually looks like Villanueva before he plucked his brows' and maybe 12 years old. lol.



I actually look and search cards in the "TEXT" mode, more results fit on a page. the thumbs,list,details etc takes too much space. I never expected a mistake like this.
Wish the mistakes was the other way around, Expensive cards for nothing, instead.

PS: Did you see Villanueva's Sister? Looks bigger then him with long hair!

So It's been a while since i've used COMC. I quit because a lot of changes that I did not agree with were getting put in place earlier this year. However it seems some of those things never materialized or were retracted and I'm seriously considering coming back.

My question. What sorts of cards are selling for you guys on a regular basis? Is it mostly high price stuff like Autos/GU? Or mostly base and inserts? Hottest sport selling right now? How often a week are you getting hit up for sales?

I just want to know the temp of the water before I get back in. I'm thinking I'll start with an assortment of 07-09 A&G minis and mini parallels. Think there is interest in stuff like that?

Thanks,
Mizz

I have not bought many cards the last two years or so-so, the stuff I have sent in to comc is mostly 2-10 years old. Lots of base cards, game used, parallels, etc. Most of my stuff books under $10. It all sells...how fast will depend on the price you are looking to set it at.

I sold a bunch of Yankees and Phillies stuff during the playoffs. Seems like several times each week, I get a player collector that buys 5 or more cards of the same player....someone bought about 30 Griffeys this week.

I can not say how pleased I am with how well the site works. I am selling stuff that I would just end up giving away.

My experience with A & G game used, are that people want them cheap! I turn down a lot of offer under $1.25 for these. I am not willing to get rid of them that cheap.

All kinds of stuff sells - most of my inventory is low end cards, mostly inserts and parallels, and I get a few buyers a day usually. It's really random sometimes. This week I sold a bunch of 2005 UD All-Star Classics base cards of stars and veterans, lots of random football inserts from '07-'09, a few football inserts from 1996, and a bunch of '05 Topps baseball gold parallels. I'm guessing most of the low-end buyers are set builders or player collectors, but there's plenty of interest in higher end cards as well.

Can a COMC Blowout gift certificate be used through out the day Friday on multiple purchases?

And if COMC cannot upload your November promo cards by the due date what would the fee price be?

As far as I know a BO/COMC Gift card can be used on Friday. Shouldnt be any reason why it wouldnt as its a Blowout gift card. Biggest issue would be getting the gift cert in time.

Kinda curious on the Nov. deadline as well. My cards are at 35% and have 2 days to go. Bigger downfall, I've got 10+ batches due 12/2 that I had hoped would make it by Black Friday, but doenst look to be the case
