What do you mean, you want your cards back? So you sent them an order to process on site and you changed your mind? You're going to pay a crazy amount to have that done, just attempt to sell them. I don't get why you would send in something you now regret later, anyway.

They seem to be hitting "expected ship dates" a few days earlier. I'd also say you'll have tracking by Friday.

He is saying that he sent them in, and not only is COMC missing the completion dates, they keep pushing them back by months. I'm assuming he, much like myself, expected them to be completed in April and now it's going to be August and not finished. To add insult to injury, the expected completion dates keep getting pushed into late august and September.

Who wouldn't regret that, while watch other send stuff in 3 or 4 weeks ago and those are getting done on time. It's nonsense.

I'm not this guy but from my perspective...since I am also waiting on an order that is at 10% and that was submitted at the beginning of this pandemic. I sent them cards when the pandemic was starting and COMC said they would honor the discount if they were late. The pandemic was happening and they knew what was going on. Yet they still encouraged sellers to flood them with new submissions at the basic level. I felt that would at least force them to attempt to get my cards listed in a timely manner...instead I am 3 months past my original due date with another 2 months estimated if I am lucky. Yet they still continue to accept new subs and all of those cards are getting processed before mine. Funny thing though after they received those tens of thousands of cards at the basic level they tell everyone nevermind...no discount...because of the pandemic that was going on at the same time they made their earlier announcement. I think they did it just to ensure they had cards in the pipeline...knowing full well they would just walk it back later.

For me No cards processed....they offered to return cards in an announcement way back since they are so obviously behind and probably only opened the boxes....since it is at 10%. I get why he wants the cards back. My stuff is old so it can be uploaded later. If I had 2020 baseball or anything that was fresh when it was submitted by the time it does get listed it will be old and COMC will be flooded and collectors will move on. Unless it is rookies it may just be worth the .30 submission fee. Some people who submitted cards at basic are getting screwed....if you can't see that I don't know what to say.

I get sales are great and everyone loves the kool aid but for the chosen few who have cards being pushed back in the pipeline it sucks. Especially when COMC is saying they are working on basic subs that are after my date and my sub is sitting with no movement.

Much appreciated. And I hope you in turn have success with the flip!

Exactly it was highly upsetting watching my Optic and Prizm basketball sit while others were getting listed. Mine were sent in well before the shutdowns and original due date was February 15th. That sub finally got done at the end of April. While others sent in under the new system were still being processed.

I have to disagree with you here. These batches were submitted in good faith before the COVID lockdowns. By Mid-April at least, COMC knew that they had a back log of several million cards and that they were working with diminished processing / shipping capacity.

At that point, it would not have been unreasonable for COMC to offer people a choice, that if a batch was completely unprocessed, it could have been returned to the original sender for the cost of return postage. It also would not have been unreasonable if COMC offered those people a coupon good for a certain amount of free processing a year from now. Maybe enough to process 5% to 10% of the cards being returned.

It's the same with people who requested shipments. If you're willing to put the cards back in your account for now, maybe they give you a $5 discount on a shipment in 2021.

They're not legally obligated to do any of this, but it would have been good customer relations. And if they could have cleared a few million cards from the processing queue and a few thousand shipments from their backlog, they could have gotten other people's items processed on time as well.

This isn't just COMC. There are lots of businesses where the user experience has been sub-optimal. Particularly if those businesses expect their customers to return with any enthusiasm when this is all over.

Theyre getting slammed again. They arent processing all newer submissions (.50-1.00) on time.

Its a bad look but theyre making more on elite and 1-week processing than the 35 cent batches. I also have a couple older basic batches with tons of Prizm and Optic that have gone up in price so that alone makes me not feel so upset. If they would have been loaded months ago I would have sold for bottom prices.

You really don't know why people would want their cards back after they've sat dormant for 5 months with absolutely indication that this is ever going to end? The only thing working in that process right now is the regular pushing back of the target date. Mine just got updated to 9/15 on an order I mailed on 3/1.

I want my cards back too, but both e-mails I've sent to them about it have been ignored.

Clearly you haven’t been paying attention to the s-show that is COMC. Everyone else explained it way better than I could have. But thanks for the post.

Thank you. Mine was mailed 3/6 or so. It sat delivered at COMC for 3 days before they acknowledged it. They have then just added weeks to my completion date without ever touching it. Back when the idiot Tim did his interview it had a 6/3 completion date. It’s now 9/11 and still sitting at 10%. The batch is not even 200 cards so I could easily sell/trade them off myself but COMC has been holding them hostage since 3/9. Supposedly they are working on 5/8 due dates but that’s what my original due date was and there has been no movement on my batch. Not even one card has been added. Another 6 weeks is beyond ridiculous. I really wish there was some way I could force them to send them back. Maybe a breach of contract lawsuit? Haha. I’m only kidding, but seriously something like that needs to happen for these assclowns to figure out what they’re doing. I’m still getting emails encouraging me to send in auction items though. So I’m contemplating sending them a nice pile of steaming dog poop. I just want the cards returned to me in the condition I sent them in. Then I will close my account there and be done with them. They have stretched this out WAY too long. I’m done and I really hope others are too. Turning off your phones and emails Bc of a pandemic is beyond idiotic when those can be answered from anywhere in the world at any time, whether you’re in a lockdown state or not. That should have been my first clue they wouldn’t get this figured out quickly.

If anyone is so disenchanted w/ comc that as soon as their cards go live they would like to move the entire port... please 9m me.

I understand people's frustration. It isn't perfect. But for a quarter a card for all it is... it's pretty great. (long wait times aside... but these things do happen. It isn't personal)

Most of the dischantment is that they can not get their cards to go live. There are some ports up for sale so they can get out.

What is the a quarter a card about? Is that the extra fee for shipping.

Yes things do happen. Some of these guys this is part their busness or a side income. So it is hard not to take it personaly. Just saying.

The other issue of shipping cards from COMC. Yes you can pay more but you have 100 cards that you paid .75 per card for why would you want to pay any more.

[Trash2Treasures]

Newest gripe shipped 30+ cards home,10-12 are toploaded paid $28 for shipping, value was $2,000 and they marked as shipped first class with sig conf. and sent last week. Now USPS says delayed with no est delivery. Emailed them to find out how they shipped 30 cards/$2000 value first class in a bubble mailer paid $28 figured priority shipping was a given with the weight

Yeah, even the 3 week subs are getting bogged down as well. They basically dont care, they just want to sell ebay auctions.

[obzezzed]

Does COMC still redeem redemption cards? I had one from 2019 process that they said is unsupported. Not sure if this is new. Thanks!

I think they announced they weren't doing redemption cards at least 6 months to a year ago.

[mjohnatgt]

Correct. The only redemptions they're still doing are from Upper Deck ePacks when you get a redemption card in a pack. Upper Deck will send it to COMC to fulfil at some point.

And theoretically they'll attempt to close out all the outstanding ones that they submitted to the redemption process.

[Bowman1951]

I get it. People are complaining their orders aren't done, it sucks. Not getting a discount on the delay doubley sucks, I experienced it also. It does depend on what was in there too.

If it's 2020 lower end cards, bad news as was explained. Lux, Alavarez and Bichette bottomed out in like the $3-4 range and have since spiked back up. So you might get lucky there. You also probably didn't sell your Kyle Lewis cards for 75 cents back in May because of the delay. If you have things like Mookie, Bellinger, Trout.....all of those are up across the board too. It'll be a good thing if they too got delayed.

If you had Prizm/Donruss basketball, it may be a blessing in disguise. Everything is up across the board. Zion base I was watching more than doubled over the past 3-4 weeks. Likely same for Ja. You have some Bol Bol waiting? It's up 10x or more.

Vintage, I have no idea, probably has held steady for the most part.

Still, wanting your cards back was the ONLY point I didn't get. Yes, it's taking longer than you wanted....but once they ARE processed, you're entering into one of the hottest modern card markets COMC has ever experienced, I assure you. Demanding them back again just seems foolish. You want to move them on another platform like BO for a fraction of what you'll get on COMC? That's fine. Maybe you have a buyer locally, cool. Do they want EVERYTHING you'll have to offer? If it's a bulk lot, it'll be like selling your port at a giant discount.

Wait it out and dip your toes into it once they are processed because you'll probably be surprised at how easily some things are moving.

And what happens if the card market bottoms out while I sit here and wait and wait and wait for them to process? Most of the cards I sent in I would have lost possibly a few bucks on if I sold them months ago, we aren’t talking thousands of dollars here. It wasn’t even 200 cards I sent (quite a few there were none on the site and now there are quite a few, so I’ll probably lose some money on those ones since there’s more competition now). But sitting here waiting on them I’m not making any money and I have no clue when they’ll ever get to them. Everyday it gets pushed back a day up to 7 days. So in mid-September when they are now due will it show December? Will those cards still be hot? I don’t know the answer to either of those questions and frankly I don’t care. I’m tired of waiting for them to get it together while they just string me along.

[Chaddie84]

How long should I expect to wait from "cash out" to when there's $$$ in my PP account? I was anticipating instantaneous or at worst, next business day. It's only been a couple days so far. No rush, but I'm kind of curious.

[mjohnatgt]

Standard is four business days for a PayPal cashout.

Perfect. Thanks!

[ForceChange77]

ive e-mailed them twice about a card i bought. no response. It is really getting bad.

Doesn't it cost just a little over a quarter a card to list on comc?


Everyone understands the frustration. I am about to send off 1k cards. Spent tons of time researching making sure that the lowest asking price on any given card is at least $1.


I an preparing for the worst as far as the timeline goes. They are so backed up with new inventory coming in at a crazy pace. If they are not live for a year... it is Max Holloway. Everything I am sending in has no value to me. Hundreds of cards that sell for $5 to $20 but to me they are just ammo for PC cards.


Comc has always been about the long game... even in the best of times when it was a relatively niche market.

So yea, the wait time is obviously frustrating. It's just not worth getting mad over imo. Kinda like psa right now. I give no thought to the 3 subs I have in the winds. To me, it just isn't worth the energy to get upset and constantly check.


I will forget about this comc order and then once its live I will have some fun.
