All I want to do is talk about COMC

If you need to ship to an international address (which is a lot of people who use COMC), I wouldn't be surprised due to the times we're in (not as many international flights, etc.), but $90 does seem a little too high.

Yes, I'm in Europe, but unless my brain is playing tricks on me I think there used to be other options, like $15 with normal tracking and another one at about $25.

I'm trying to figure out if I dreamed those or if they've been disabled, maybe temporarily.

I have a order that i paid them 4,000 for and paid for $150 rushed shipping and that day has passed and they havent yet even shipped. Also have a haul mixed up in that February fumble they did and havent received that order either. Will not respond to emails or even the facebook page. This is ridiculous should i hit up paypal and my cc companies and tell em they basically stole my money! ?? thanks in advance.

Has anybody ever bought a card on COMC, then relisted for sale, and then a few weeks later had the item in your "needs to be priced" section with the note as [None Must Be Returned]. It is very confusing. I bought a Trout PSA 9 minor league rookie and repriced it to be above the current market. There were about 14 PSA 9's listed. Now, when searching for this card on COMC, there are no graded cards at all and only 1 non-graded card listed. Seems very bizarre. Any insight appreciated. I have a question into COMC, but no idea if/when that gets responded to.

Was the trout cheap? If the seller claims to have mispriced the item than they can try to get COMC to reverse the sale. Looks like that may have happened....it can take a while for sales to be reversed. Good Luck!

Odd, I just bought a trout card that had the same thing

[Smarti5051]

I bought the card on 3/18/21. I sent in an inquiry, and now the note has changed to: Must Be Returned - Unlicensed or Unsupported Item [None Must Be Returned]. The price was pretty good due to a discount, but not insane. I doubt the original seller would come back 2 months later and claim the card was underpriced. If I was to speculate, it is almost as though COMC got word that this type of card is highly susceptible to forgeries and they don't sell them anymore due to questionable authenticity. Sort of like how PSA doesn't grade Jordan Star cards anymore. But, that is a total guess. Wondering why I am stuck with the card though, if that is there ultimate decision. Seems like it should go back to whoever introduced the card to COMC, not me.

Tell them that you would like to return the item or just have it shipped to you if you want to keep it.

Direct from their return policy page.

There is no time limit for a buyer to return a fraudulent item. Any item we confirm to be fraudulent (altered or counterfeited to deceive a buyer and increase its value) will be returned to the original consignor and the consignor's account will be debited the amount of its most recent sale price plus any subsequent condition review or grading fees incurred via COMC. A $10 fee will also be charged to the consignor to offset the costs involved with return shipping and investigation.

Yeah but for returns like that...I heard it can take a while. Meaning even if the seller immediately emailed COMC telling them they mispriced it which they would need to do if they are following the rules....then COMC may take a month or two to let the buyer know that they are now doing the return process....and it can take additional months for them to take the card from your account and refund you. If yours are due to the card being fake...I am thinking we are still talking months. Good Luck.

It seems as though all the 2010 Trout "minor league team issued" cards have disappeared from the search results. Except for a psa 10 that is currently in auction.

[sfgiants4life]

Yup they pull it but it will take a while for the card to leave your port and for you to get a refund.

[rmw10]

My economy rushed is officially a week late today. Still ridiculous that they charge extra for shipping and still can't meet deadlines. So done with them.

Grabbed 16 from jimmertime7. Locked up in a shipping request.

which card exactly? The 2011 heritage minors? The trout card I bought were found to be "Inauthentic" by COMC. But weird a graded card would have that problem.

2010 Cedar Rapids Kernels Rising Alumni #3 Mike Trout RC Rookie PSA 9

[Smarti5051]

That is the exact same card, same condition, that I am referring to.

[no10pin]

Found this thread, I'm guessing the cards you guys have are the Rising Alumni cards like the one currently being auctioned? Sounds like they are counterfeit/fake and COMC just figured it out. Of course, that doesn't explain why that one auction is still running.

Looks like COMC will be refunding my account for 16 of them. Hope jimmertime7 is ready for the rather large reversal and fees.

Today, I just received 4 different Returned Item Notifications. All were multiple cards orders. I can't tell if they were from the same person, or not.

I don't think I've had more than 4 returns during my entire time on COMC.

I wonder if this is related to recent shipping issues, not buyers returning cards.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Yes. I'm a small time seller, I had two returns yesterday. Both from February transactions. I haven't had a sale in 6 days now. That is very unusual for me since I'm often the lowest and running a 10% sale. But I'm NBA only, that may have something to do with low sales?

I'm guessing that the returns are due to COMC cancelling late orders, etc. I could be wrong.

I think the low sales is due to ebay eliminating the specific cards categories (ie baseball, basketball, etc). Makes it tougher to scroll through specific sports. Also resulting in less funds for sellers to buy on COMC from funds from ebay sales. I hope the slowdown doesn't last long as buyers adjust.

And just a few pages back some were saying that Tim said they would eat these.

Ha, saw something about comc being down for maintenance 10p-midnight yesterday. It’s now 5a pacific and it’s still down saying “will be up in an hour”

[adamdavidson47]

Still "down for maintenance"

**It seems to be back up now. I had to type in comc.com/manage and it went the page. It kept going automatically to comc.com/down

I also had a return yesterday. It was just a John Cena base card, but I still emailed COMC (knowing there will be no response) letting them know it's ridiculous they don't eat the return because they probably didn't ever ship it out after 3 months. (The buyer had bought this card February 11th).

It’s up but won’t let me buy anything.
