I can’t believe people are still sending them stuff at this point. They are behind on just about every level now. Good luck, I’d be pretty annoyed if it took them that long just to acknowledge them. That seems to be a tad long but the longer they don’t acknowledge it the more time they have to get them uploaded.

Does it do any good to report a card is priced to high???

Saraste · 08-18-2020, 08:10 PM

In the last week I have had about 20% of my 200 card submission upload that was due on 5/8. Had about about 35 cards upload between the 12th and the 13th. Crickets after that until tonight when 4 more uploaded.

Its been fine for other cards...In the same week(10th) something was delivered but the final update is :

"DELIVERED FRONT DESK/RECEPTION/MAIL ROOM
REDMOND, WA 98052"

I got the email for that already. Its just the ones going to "an agent" thats annoying.

You know, I'm not sure. Some COMC accounts must be bleeding from all the premium storage fees when they price $100 cards at $5,000 for years.

I removed it from being listed and emailed COMC asking them to verify if it's damaged as it wasn't listed at "Noted". I've yet to receive a reply and that was a week ago...

As of about 10 minutes ago, I haven't heard back from COMC regarding the above. I decided to look at the card and it seems the "thumbtack hole" is no longer there. Must have been something on the scan.

Looks like the addressed the issue but didn't communicate it.

I sent 3 different packages to COMC in a 2 day period. First two arrived and logged into the site, the 3rd, a medium flat rate box said on the DC# that 'delivery failed'. That was August the 15th, not sure what to do from here and not sure why it would say that?

OK so it said it has no access to delivery location, will re-deliver next business day. Still confused, It had the same (correct) address as my other two packages.

Maybe it did not fit into a bin or whatever and they had to carry it back to the PO for later delivery. While the other 2 fit.

If my next 1-week elite goes through at the end of this week, I'll be 3/3 on them being processed on time this summer. That one would be a big hit for them if they were late and since I'm sending graded cards in, they aren't huge orders that can get processed (like 20 at a time). Maybe larger orders do get pushed back though.

jdub1617 · 08-19-2020, 01:20 PM

Does it seem like there is less inventory since all this started? At least in football which is what I collect. Maybe people are hesitant to send their cards in with such delays but are willing to purchase and have them shipped even with delays.

Glad to hear they've been keeping up with the 1-week elite batches. I have a 1-week elite batch of 368 cards due tomorrow.

Occasionally I look at how many total baseball cards they have currently for sale. Highest I saw was 1.4 million. Currently at 1.3. Since its very expensive to currently ship in a timely fashion, I imagine many people are just using the site to flip, causing a rise in prices.

I have done a bunch of buying in the last 5 months. Many of the cards are to flip but 800-1000 are for me to ship home. With the shipping delays, I'm sure there are many in my situation.

When I look at total baseball cards, it looks like 1.8 million today (just by clicking "Baseball" under Sports Cards).
Wish there was a way to see the cumulative asking price on all of them.
For my sales, I usually check to see if a card that just sold is being flipped, but I haven't noticed any big changes so far this year on those numbers (not that I track them, just my opinion).

Im a football guy and it really could be that I only look around at the better players in the league so it's a small snapshot. But it seems like all the prizms and refractors and getting grabbed and not relisted to flip, less and less to choose from every week it seems.

HenryLee · 08-19-2020, 06:23 PM

Why can two sellers own the exact same card at the same time?

Typo in the serial number?
One’s a fake?
Big in the software?

mjohnatgt · 08-19-2020, 06:37 PM

The copy still for sale is #22/25. So the one in Sold Out status must have had a different serial number, and it was typed in wrong *or* every once in a while the manufacturer stamps cards with the same number. It's happened before.

Looking at your image, I think the one on the left is #21/25.

The sold out one is back on sale at a different price. Looks like two exact copies to me. The scans are different based on the position of the COMC watermark.

That's the number of different cards for sale, not the total number of cards for sale.

Yep, they both are #22/25. Looks like a Panini screw-up. Buy them both and sell them on eBay as CRAZY BIZARRE MOJO PANINI SCREW-UP EBAY 1/1S!!!

Perhaps, but there was no update today. For the record, the other two were a flat rate padded mailer and a medium flat rate box. The one not delivered was also a medium flat rate box.

mjohnatgt · 08-19-2020, 07:49 PM

Lazy post office people also use that delivery response when they forgot it and want to make it seem like it wasn't their fault. I do wish COMC would get off their butts and answer the phone and email...

New football products from this year and last?

Current year 3-week and 3-week are lagging. I have a batch thats going 3 weeks past due.

Even 1-week is starting to take too longer.
