Default Switching cases on Ebay

Let’s say you’re originally selling a card at $50 in a brand new one touch and then through not selling you lowered your price until it was a fire sale at $5-20, do you think it’s inappropriate to throw it into a top loader and send it out instead of the $5-7 brand new one touch? I’ve had people do this to me but would worry myself about doing this possibly getting bad feedback. At the same time, the item description is for the card. That’s what you’re buying. You don’t ever get the stand the card is sitting on or the desk the card is resting on, the whole it’s in the photo goes out the window. Just looking for opinions and reasoning

True. If you want to scan it or risk removing it to take a photo then sure. But if you’re just continually dropping price on the same listing and don’t want to relist and take everything out again to photo and what not, it seems alright. But that’s my opinion which is why I ask. See where the majority stand. I never minded when people switched the cases as long as the card from the auction came and was in the condition it was listed in. People paying $3 for a $30 card and expecting a $5 case are kind of being far fetched

re-take the pictures.....

i am not going to look, but there are multiple threads on here of sellers complaining about buyers asking for either a refund or returning the card simply because it was not in the holder pictured. there have even been negs. reported for it.

personally, i would never show a card for sale in any type of holder. if you cannot take a picture or scan a card without damaging it, you probably should not be handling cards.

Just my opinion..... You can't get p!ssed buying a $5-20 card and getting it in a top loader. Even when the pic is in a mag. A $5 card isn't worth it and if you expect it; that's an indictment on you. As long as it is packaged well, I have no issues.

Do people complain when they buy clothes online and they don’t come with the model featured in the photos?

Add a disclaimer to your listing if you're worried about it. "Card will be shipped in a toploader and not a one touch as shown in the pictures."

If the picture shows the card in the mag, include the mag.
Good customer service = return customers

You should read some of the crazy Amazon reviews/returns. 💯 People complain about stuff like that.

I know folks who sell patterns for clothes online and buyers get upset that the $2 pattern with $3 shipping isn't a full on wedding dress....

Shouldn't be shipping cards in a magnetic one touch anyway. I'd rather get it in a toploader.
