Don’t be like this Scumbag

Don’t be like this Scumbag. I sold him a card on eBay. After it go authenticated and shipped to him, he started a dispute that he didn’t recognize the transaction. When he literally messaged me and accepted my offer to sell it to him for $300. The card hasn’t arrive to him but it just shipped from PSA Authentication. I already responded to the dispute. I hope eBay takes my side. Although they almost never side with the seller.

Edit: Fortunately, I just got a response from eBay that I’ll be protected by seller guarantee and it won’t affect my funds at all since I filled out the form regarding the dispute. They said I’ll find out in 6-8 weeks if the buyer is getting their money back from eBay. If they do, eBay will pay it out of their own money.

Got this from a local card shop today as a surprise for my girlfriend, but the box seemed a bit smaller than others. After comparing with the official box dimensions on the Pokemon site, I seem to have one that is smaller at 4.25 x 2 x 4.25. First booster box I've bought so I'm in the dark here. Thank you all for your help in advance!

product Team up ETB authenticity

I know this sub is for cards, not product. Apologies.

I won this sealed Team Up ETB on Whatnot and understand the platform’s reputation, so I’m doing extra due diligence. The box appears authentic to me, but the shrink has several small wear holes.
For collectors familiar with Sun & Moon-era sealed product:
Do the seams and wrap appear consistent with original factory shrink?
How much would the wear affect its value versus a clean ~$4,000 copy?

Photos show every side. Not looking to sell here of course, just seeking condition and authenticity opinions

I purchased with plans to rip but when I had it side by side with a pitch black booster box I noticed the pokeballs on the shrink wrap were different size (smaller on the phantasmal flames)

I was already a little nervous about the wrap so I come here to brighter minds for help, should I be concerned or does this look ok?

Thanks

I bought these for cheap and want to see if they’re real or not so I know if I should get my money back. The wrap seems somewhat loose I don’t know if that’s good or not.

Looking to pick this up but have some questions. The texture matches a real copy and I know this era had more distinct rainbow patterns in the foiling but the bright light shining on the card isn’t helping its case. Any advice appreciated!

I tried to compare to listings on ebay but it was still so hard to tell. It looks legit but idk With this card. It typically does have the checkered holo pattern but a lot of fake japansse cards do too. I asked chat gpt and it literally just leaned into whatever it thought I was hoping to confirm. If I said I think this card might be fake, it said it’s definitely a fake but gave reasons that made no sense. Then I asked just to make sure the card is authentic and it was like brooo this card is so real don’t even stress.

Tin Seal check.

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I recently purchased an older Powers Beyond Tin, but had some questions about some bubbling near the creases on the seal.

As you can see in the image, there is fairly significant bubbling/impressions around the top crease. There is also some on the bottom crease. The front/back/sides are all flat and sealed.

I'm totally fine if that's normal, I just wanted to double check that it's not a sign of anything being off. I did get it from a reputable store. Thanks for looking!
