1990'S Green Bay Packers Team SIGNED Proline Helmet including REGGIE WHITE

Always wanted another Green Bay Packers Auto Helmet with Brunell on it. I had followed this item for over six months...each time "watching it" on my ebay page. It was always listed as a Buy It Now with Best Offer Option. It started off at $1500, then went down to $1200 and then to $950. At some point I did make an offer of $400, but was turned down.

Finally, he listed it as an auction and I won (stole) it for $255 plus $22 UPS shipping which I paid within the SAME minute! That was March 9th.

The seller didn't "send" the item until March 17th via USPS (eight days after payment). It came with a tracking # that hasn't showed anything except "Class: Priority Mail...Status: Electronic Shipping Info Received"

I inquiried about it on March 22 and they said "we would refund your money if it doesn't show up soon".

For some reason, I had a bad feeling that I wasn't going to get this "steal". Could this be a case of seller remorse?

I waited until Sunday (26 days) before making a claim with ebay/paypal...I got a refund on Sunday.

Other items over the years that "got lost" are Brunell/Thiesmann Dual AUto/Jersey #/25 and the ever elusive 2000 Fleer Mystique Pendemonium (Pen, Stand and Auto Card)!

This kind of BS really kills me! Has this ever happened to you before?

happened to me with a pete rose rookie that the seller wasnt happy with the ending price. sent me a paul molitor rookie on accident and my pete rose to N.Y. so he said, thing is i checked and he never even sold the molitor and of course he never got the rose back and neither did I. i got my money back but of course i wanted the card. sucks when stuff like that happens, you think you scored the deal of a lifetime and you end up with nothing but heartbreak.

The first Northcutt '00 Donruss Gold Signature Series auto /25 I saw, this happened to me. Except, this was like 5 years ago and on eBay, you could still do the money orders.

Seller in S.C. ripped me off of about $50 (bought a couple other cards from him). Luckily I was able to pick up another (and yet another) of the Northcutt's since then.
