The card came from the Netherlands like this:

Why would anyone open the package pull out the patch and try putting it back on in reverse?



****Just want to say THANK YOU to Tom Murray***

He read this thread and sent me the same card. There are some nice guys on this board.

When cards are #'d as high as this one, I always wait and buy one from someone in the US. Granted, it can happen in any country, but I feel a lot safer buying within the US.

WTF? People overseas aren't allowed to have a hobby?

::facepalm::

Why would you ever have to talk to the person directly? That's paypal/eBay's job to resolve disputes, not yours.

Sorry to hear that happened to you. I can't imagine the conversation that led to that happening. Don't cards also come through US Customs? Could have been one of our own.

Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country in the hobby and the other countries don't deserve to share in the hobby. That used to be called patriotism. Oh yeah, f*** Asian countries.
