eBay has a loophole allowing a seller to avoid responsibility in a third-party situation.
If this had happened on the forum and the parties could not agree, I would have the seller refund the buyer at least partially.
Unfortunately, this is an off-forum transaction.
Hopefully Paypal will protect the buyer.
Anyone claiming COMC stole the cards must understand that it is just as likely that the seller mailed an empty package: technically possible but extremely unlikely. Either the package wasn't sealed well (it happens - especially when dealing with volume) or someone in the post office grabbed the cards.

Why are you as a moderator installing your opinion (again) rather than moderating as your job requires? It's just as likely someone at COMC stole the contents of the package as anything else you listed there.. that is the point here. Do you know of some special reason why COMC is immaculate in their work and other companies are not? It's not a loophole.. it's logic. If you cannot prove a statement.. the statement is invalid.
Your post here will only further fan flames in this thread and you completely miss the point of that.. again.
EDIT: just want to point out.. no a seller does not "agree" to ship to COMC.. the buyer provides a shipping address and a seller is REQUIRED to ship to said provided address, otherwise they're own seller protection is invalidated.
