That's just the way the regular 2001 Topps card looks. I would think they'd fit together too if they were all borderless like the Williams.

To each their own, I guess. This is till entertaining as hell to me.

Truly a crazy time we are all going through.

These cards are truly beautiful and each and every one brings a smile to my face...Everything is right with the world today..

Tossing in a padded envelope (which barely has any padding) is not a wise decision. Especially when there is a box that has value and is part of the purchase. The boxes slide to the bottom of the package and where pinched at some point during transit.

Every other card I receive (and how I ship all my packages) had the cards in an Individual bubble wrap protected sleeve.

Would you ship a top loader in a padded envelope without cardboard support or some sort of bubble wrap? Same concept.

I knew you could do it. I agree. These cards really are pretty great.

You could even offer to mail the damaged boxes back in return. I would honor this as a seller wagering that nobody else cares about the condition of the box.

Again, a reminder that by proffering this information, you are telling them what you find wrong with the listing and it will negate any future returns you may request when it goes to ebay because the seller will say you are returning it for the box which is not covered in the auction.

I offered both. A $20 refund (about the cost of 3 boxes) or receive replacement boxes.

Sounds very fair to me.

What's IN THE BOX?!?!

I don't find any value in the box, honestly, but buyers have constantly asked me about them so I keep them. But you cannot deny that this happened:

Had a buyer today asking where the box was? I didn't have it in my description but offered to send him a free one. Nbd to me. He's happy

As someone who buys and sells and can get anal about things, this sounds very fair to me. Anyone who approaches me with a nice tone and doesn't sound scammy gets my attention and I would gladly do one of these things.

I hope I've given you good advice, apologize if not. One time a guy left positive feedback with a positive message and THEN contacted me about a missing card in a set. I immediately PWE'd it to him, totally something I probably missed.

A lot of people on these boards seem to be posting that boxes have no value, you should offer to pay shipping for three of their boxes!

Gotcha! I've been shipping cards in a bubble wrapped sleeve for the box. Just trying to get a sense of people's expectations.

FWIW, StockX requires the original packaging must be included and that it be undamaged. So there is value in the box if you plan to sell to Stockx.

If it was a small ding (I received a couple with small imperfections) I wouldn't make a fuss. These boxes have notciable indentions where the cases crashed the boxes.
