After reviewing upperdeck, eBay listings, completed listing... that's no longer a rookie auto patch for me.. i may have been wrong, but i am only asking a partial refund.. Cath can relist anytime she wants....
but would you buy exquisite without a patch?? I am a bit superstitious with cards.. if a card has marks or badly crease mark, i don't care how much it is worth, i will just throw it away (which i did many times).. when a card is altered or ruined.. i will not keep it, because i fail to maintain an original condition of the cards... This card has no fabric while it's stated auto/patch.. I would not want to keep it.. even if i do not get a refund.. She can at least sell to Rafeal's fans later.. instead of me throwing away an exquisite auto because of not having a patch.... ????? Actually, after Cath messaged me back that's how she received the card.... i already replied thanks to Cath and told my GF to dispose the card.. My GF told me, it is actually a nice looking card.. probably the seller can take it back and sell to those who collect Rafeal.. if we ask for a partial refund.. So, i message Cath for refund possibility.
i am still waiting upperdeck's feedback, but i doubt it will come anytime soon.. they are not reliable as we all know....
I wasn't arguing about authenticity of the card.. I truly believe Cath received the same condition as it is.. That's exactly why I am only asking her to allow me to return for partial refund.. I know her time, listing fees and commission fees are worth more than entire value of the card...
I can always see many people crtisizing about fleer auction cards and those dodgy sellers when they receive the cards as a buyer.. I just don't get it.. today, buyer is trying to rip a seller story.. even seller is saying it's not..
This is my saddest $18 i ever spent in Australia..... i know, it was all my fault asking for refund.. i should stick with my first instinct..

Matt,
how do you define patch??
A rubber is a patch???? if a rubber with stickiness is a patch, i will not ask for refund.. that's too much work for me and Cath.. i will send it to you.....
I just scanned the shit looking fabrics and other patches.. it's nothing like it, and 2-3mm gap in bettween cardboards in 5-6mm exquisite cardboards...
Sadly, i own a few exquisite patches and this is nothing like a patch, except rubber paste as a medium in between card and fabric..

Firstly, I didnt mean that as an attack upon either of you, Cath or you Nanda.
Just because its one colour doesnt mean its not a patch. That the Raptors have a strange plastic piece on their jersey means its probably the worst patch, not only an exquisite but any card, ive ever seen. Ive got a Reggie Miller card with a piece of strange piece of yellow plastic like material thru the middle; its not sticky in texture as you have mentioned about the purple stuff.
The gap you also talked about is probably part of the manfacturing process; can you really imagine Upper Deck going to the effort to fix a small gap like that.
Once again, not intended as an attack upon you, but you seemed to be very quick to dismiss it as not a patch due to the texture and the lack of multiple colours.
Cheers

yeah agree... anybody who post AFTER me is a moron!!! :v:
Hey Linn, SOrry about the harsh comments. I did not mean to offend you. I dod not read the initial thread properly saying it was one of us. But from the story we got (one sided as it may be), it sounded a little sus.
I can assure you it is a genuine patch. And it is quite normal to have a gap like that with a patch like that.
Again sorry.

Card value is irrelevant. The hobby is about cards and not price. While I don't agree with the way this was handled both parties have points. The correct way would of been to ask about it first as if you are unsure there are plenty of collectors here and elsewhere that have been in the hobby a lot longer or specialize in that set that can answer your questions.
Educate and move on as threads that go astray like this and comments like Shoes that inflame them are simply locked or shut down as it achieves nothing.
