Your Batch #4178551 had a quantity specified of 800. However, the actual quantity is 1,002.

Because the actual quantity was not within 20% of your specified quantity, a $3.00 Incorrect Paperwork Fee will be added to the processing fees for your batch.
I know COMC is reading so I want to Ask whose brainchild it was to establish a dumb policy like this to charge people for not having a proper count. You folks are better and smarter than this. Start acting like it!!!!

While I don't see why it's necessary to charge the $3, at the same time I'm not sure what the problem is with people counting their cards, especially given 20% leeway. It's not exactly rocket science.

Some people (like me) just don't care that much. These are cards we want (and pay) someone else to do. Why should I put together 3000 cards and then have to count them. If they were all 1988 Topps and had the same thickness, it wouldn't matter much. But cards today have all kinds of thicknesses and it's not easy to estimate the number of cards based on a small stack.

In one year I paid $30K in fees to them. This petty BS greed is too much. They raised fees and put more work on the customer. For what? Processing is no faster and sales have stayed stagnant since they started selling on eBay almost 3 years ago.

Oh, I'd warn you to be careful with this phrase; apparently, there are some board members who are very sensitive when it comes to this phrase. Like, they were failed rocket scientists or something, I dunno...

You're gonna stand there, ownin' a fireworks stand, and tell me you don't have no whistlin' bungholes, no spleen splitters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker don'ts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistlin' kitty chaser?

No... because snakes and sparklers are the only ones I like.

Well that might be your problem, it's not what you like, it's the consumer.

LOL...hasn't been my problem for nearly 3 years now - it's a lot more fun being part of the peanut gallery, anyways

I understand that wanna be rocket scientists should easily be able to count within 20%, but for the life of me I can't understand how COMC thought that this policy was a good idea. COMC has made so many good business decisions to grow to where they are today so I am hoping this was just a bad day....

Looks like the reason the site was down was to fix the shipping credit issue.

Can someone explain the selling on eBay option to me?

If you go into settings and hit yes to selling on eBay and Amazon, do they just automatically list everything in your port on eBay or do you get to pick and choose what to sell on there?

They take a total of 20% correct?

They take 20% from each sale. All cards you list *can* be listed on eBay/Amazon, but they don't list them all. They're selected from an algorithm and can only list like 2.5 or 5 million at a time on eBay. But no, when you select it, it's all or nothing.

I'm running a good sale and I can tell when the site is having issues because nothing is moving. I also can't spend the money I'm making on stuff I want...crappy.

I added store credit hours ago and nothing is showing up. No pending paypal notification, its not in my store credit history, nothing. Its simply not there.

Its been taken out of my paypal account though.

I put credit on for a specific card that was on sale. I 100% guarantee when my credit shows up the card will be gone. FU COMC. YOU GET WORSE BY THE DAY.
