This. Auto decline is set to 50% and I disable it every time since even a lowballer is a potential buyer you can work with. That being said if you don’t want the hassle I can totally understand if you deactivate best offer or set up auto decline. But stop complaining if you don’t. ---

Just a heads up in case anyone here was planning on bidding on this [auction](https://www.ebay.com/itm/Pokemon-TCG-Blastoise-Holo-Mint-Psa-9-FIRST-EDITION/133726507136?hash=item1f22b89080:g:Bl8AAOSwceJgdkEv). The seller does not own the card. It is quite literally in my hand as I post this. ---

That being said if you don’t want the hassle I can totally understand if you deactivate best offer or set up auto decline. But stop complaining if you don’t. Auto-decline/accept offer is such a nice feature. For any cards I list, I almost always have it set to where I never have to see an offer unless it meets the auto-accept minimum. If I list a card for $25, I set the auto-decline up to $20 and accept $20.01 and higher, for reference ---

Label font is wrong, QR code is too small. Slab is really well made, but bottom-right of slab is supposed to have the PSA logo embossed. What is concerning is how well the slab is made, think about it. If someone grades a 9, cracks the case without damaging the label, puts it into this case with the real label + PSA 6 equivalent real card, many people are going to get fucked over by it.

I can’t even tell if the stamp states EDITION or something else in this small-ass 500x500 pixels picture with more background than card in addition to that… 😒 eBay should forbid auctions without images or small pictures imo, freaking useless… 😕 Greetz, Quuador ---

I can see the 1st Edition missing on the left label too. The colour difference is apparent here, the case is very similar if you disregard the bottom right logo… In general, i would NEVER buy ANYTHING from a seller with so little reviews on ebay. Its just too risky. Its probably someone looking to fudge you over, take your money and then abandon the account.
