With GPK Sapphire boxes going up in value so much between pre-orders and shipments, you can expect some disreptuable sellers to cancel orders. Here's my conversation today with one seller, solekixs, I bought a box from for $125 on Dec. 12:
-------- from: solekixs Do you still want this? I realized I still want it. I have an offer for you. I can send you $25 PayPal as well as a refund. If you are interested, let me know. If not no worries. I'll have it shipped out then. Me: I appreciate the offer, but I do still want the cards. Thanks. from: solekixs Oh ok, no worries. I will have it shipped out the next day I receive it. Have a wonderful rest of your night next day from: solekixs How about I sell you this GPK Beyond the Streets Limited edition to 48 cards in the set/special edition Adam bomb chase card which they only made 100 of for under retail at $100 in exchange of refunding for the GPK Sapphire box? This GPK X BTS resells for $260+. Let me know. Me: I just want the Sapphire box I ordered and paid for. Are you really going to ship it to me? from: solekixs How about $80 PP? Me: It sounds like you're just trying the easy ways out first. I want my order. Am I going to get it from an honest seller or not? from: solekixs Not trying to ease my out. I actually decided I really want it. After seeing photos online of it I love it. I am offering you compensation to buy another box to keep box parties happy. Its not the fact I undersold it, its the fact I like the Topps set... I am trying to come to an agreement here. What do you think is fair? I can PayPal Gift you. let me know. Me: We already came to an agreement when I bought your box. You're free to sell the stuff you're offering me and the money I paid you to buy another box if you want. So again I say, are you going to ship my order or not? from: solekixs No, you may request for a refund at this point... I do not like the course of actions you have responded in. Please request for cancellation and as this deal will be done with. I had offered you more than fair compensation at my expense giving you higher value for your money’s worth and you have decided not to take it. Thanks! ***** I was pretty sure I wasn't going to get the box from his first message, so I showed a little more attitude that I usually would. I realize I may have shot myself in the foot, now I'll just get a refund instead of getting a refund AND some free stuff, but I don't care. It'll be worth it to neg this bad seller. And put him on blast on here. |

They sure do!
And I'm wondering how he already received the limited edition Adam Bomb from Beyond the Streets release? I don't have any indication my boxes have even shipped. |

I didn't respond to him further, he ended up cancelling it himself, I negged him, and I just got this message from him:
------- Thanks for being such a reasonable person!!!! I was thinking of sending you a present. I was thinking of sending you the cards from box I am planning on opening, since you are such a nice person!!! This address is correct? Enjoy! [my mailing address redacted] ------ Sounds like a threat to me. |

Probably safer to not open it at all. I'm on hold with eBay

Wow. Glad eBay agreed it was suspect. Let us know when you get updates on the situation. Sorry this is happening to you

Instead looks like eBay removed my negative on him. Perhaps because I called him "dishonest" but that's documented.

Ebay tries to please whoever they're on the phone with most of the time.
