For the record, ‘I moved please ship to my new address’ is a very common scam.
The seller is only protected if he sends to the address on file, otherwise, you can get a full refund from ebay by just selecting ‘Item never arrived’
They will check, see that the item was sent to a different address, and refund the buyer.
The second you asked to send the card to a different address I would’ve canceled the transaction, and added you to my blocked buyer list.
I changed my address on ebay to the new address so the address I asked for it to be sent to was the one on ebay it’s just because I changed the address after the purchase date of the card but before he shipped it so I didn’t know what address ebay would tell him so I was just confirming my new address.
Regardless, the seller was completely fine with it and didn’t have a problem but admitted to just basically forgetting.
Never ship to a different address, doesn’t matter what story buyer has or if they say they added the address to ebay.
It’s also unfair to ask the seller to send to a different address. It’s like saying ‘Hey, mail me the card and I’ll decide whether or not to pay you when it shows up’

Look, this was a one time scenario give I was moving and my move date got unexpectedly moved up by a few weeks. The seller agreed to it and was fine with it. And it was the new address on my ebay account which I changed as soon as I knew I was actually moving. People move and you need to change your address and this was the one card that was bought before I moved but shipped after. If he didn’t want to ship it to the new place he could have said no. And the card was already paid for.

I’m not suggesting that you are trying to scam anyone, I’m just letting you know about this common scam so you don’t fall victim to it.
I assume that if you knew about that scam you wouldn’t be trying to get packages sent to different addresses, because it looks REALLY suspect

Alright well under the circumstances of just having moved, what do you do to get the package delivered to your new address? Is it simply automatically changed to the new address (if you’ve changed it on your account) on new purchases but not old purchases after the address change in which case anything you bought before simply needs to be cancelled?

Correct.
I assume you opened an ebay return? Sorry If I come across as a prick, I am actually concerned and want to see you get your money back.
If it was up to me you would get 100$ back for time and suffering.
My only piece of advice is don’t leave this guy negative feedback. Everyone can see when you leave negative feedback and sellers won’t want to deal with you if they see you leaving too many negatives.
So it’s best to save your negs for when they are really truly deserved. What happens if the next ebay seller sends you a brick in the mail? Do you really want to leave back to back negatives? People can see that and won’t sell to you

Yea its fine. The address thing wasn’t a big concern of mine it was just all the little things added up to a headache of an issue for this card. Yea the seller accepted the return no problem which is all I ask for as people can overlook mistakes. It’s the ones that fight tooth and nail on a return for a clearly damaged card described as nm or mint that get negative feedback.
Free used stuffed toys! Just what I wanted…

He’s not sending you the plushes because you wanted them…he’s using them as packing material. I don’t see how this is garbage.

When it has arrived you can post it here: www.elitefourum.com/t/pictures-of-crazy-ways-received-cards-have-been-packaged/28733/1
But overall it’s better than no package material tbh, and they even gave you a heads up in this message. I personally wouldn’t mind tbh (unless the stuffed animal arrives in a very questionable state, haha).

This has to be the worst PSA 9 I’ve ever seen lol. Looks like a 7 on a good day…
Someone selling a 9 this weak should really mention it in the description, IMO.
At least it wasn’t followed up with “POTENTIAL PSA 11? REGRADE???”

I don’t actually think it’s that bad. Not sure if it’s whitening on the bottom corners or just the corners of the card?
