TNTNorthNJ Ebay Listings...WTF Same cards every two weeks..

[Joshua.Roundtree]

Am I the only one that notices this guy auctions the EXACT same cards every couple of weeks (as soon as the old listing expires from the history). The Wilmer Flores Gold Ref Auto that ends tonight has been listed AT LEAST 7 times that I've counted ending anywhere from $98.98 to $146.50. Same for all the Wrapper Redemption Autos, USA Blue Ref Autos, etc. Does he just shill the auctions? Anybody actually win something from this seller? I can't be the only one whose noticed this. Nobody can have that bad of luck with NPB.

I've won a ton from them. Sometimes stuff gets relisted, but they list in such mass quantities that I'm sure every week they have tons of NPB who decide to bid on a ridiculous amount of stuff. I don't see much rare stuff of mine from them listed over and over but it has happened a few times


They have a ton of the wrapper autos. No idea if they busted an absurd quantity or what but those are legit. Bought numerous of them from them.

not even brent and becca can match teddy.
his entire business is ripping and listing, 24/7.
he has millions of cards. Not sure about the flores
thing, are they the same serial #? he may have had
10 of those redemptions that year. he is legit, but he is
far from the most efficient seller, as he has several other people
helping him, and they may not be that good.

Flores is always the same scan, same serial number #36/50.

Ted Straka by any chance?

Amen. He leaves a ton of money on the table with some of the foolish BIN's he posts only to lose the advantage of being first to list.

I used to buy most of the new Andruw Jones stuff from him once a few new products came out because he has flat rate shipping on up to 50 cards I believe. I stopped buying from him once COMC surfaced and I realized I could wait and get the cards much cheaper.

He does leave a ton on the table with the crazy BIN's, but I think he leaves even more money to chance when he declines what I have considered VERY reasonable offers on Andruw Jones cards.

With that said, I have never had any issues with the cards or the seller.

I won a card from them recently.
Turned into a hassle, not for the reasons you'd think though......

I guess this goes with what you were saying, because I received two packages, both of the same card (I won one). I did try to do the right thing and contacted them.....the packages didn't even have DC, so they would have not even had any idea they messed up........so as I said, I thought it was the right thing to let them know.

The whole situation was a bit annoying to me, so I let them know I had no problem sending the card back as long as I was given a shipping fee, I didn't think that was unreasonable. It was like a $4-7 card, so I didn't want to add another $3 to it due to a mistake that was in no way mine. Went back and forth with messages...turned into an even bigger hassle....offered PWE, they said they'd rather have it in a bubble mailer with DC.....said they'd send the shipping cost......never did (maybe they thought I was trying to scam?)......never heard back......the card is still sitting here in the TNTNorthNJ sealed toploader. Oh well.

So that is my experience with them . :lol:
Hopefully I don't look too bad by sharing that......honestly I'm not sure how many people would have even contacted them to begin with no DC, and as I said, I don't think I was unreasonable for asking for the shipping fee. I'll try to avoid buying from them again.

I'm not sayin Ted specifically mr Straka is fine peeps. (N my thoughts r with the big fella)


I have had an issue with wrapper redemptions for the entire time, there are several sellers in the northern new jersey area who seem to currently have, and had in the past large amounts of these wrapper redemptions, I remember within 1 week of packs being sent out one seller had on ebay (w/o exaggeration about 20-25 BLACK auto's from the program).


My issue with this is that I legitimately opened wrappers redemptions from 50 CASES. And only pulled 12 total auto's and only 2 were blacks and only one usa buyback.

He also sells on consignment, and sometimes his customers set odd prices one direction or the other.

I've bought singles from him on dozens of occasions, also worked a couple off-eBay deals, never a real problem. For me, saving the multiple shipping costs has allowed me to add a bunch of cards pretty reasonably.

I've bought tons of low end singles and a few mid range cards from them over the years and have always had a good experience.

Meh. They soft sleeve everything, but stuff as many cards as possible into one of the gigantic point size toploaders. It works but its certainly has its issues. But for a flat fee of $3 it's perfectly acceptable for me

Now that you mention that, I've had that happen with some low end items before. It's pretty careless and its not like it saves them any money. Soft sleeves are under $.01 if bought in bulk, whereas at least they can save some money by not using toploaders on all since those actually have some legit cost and makes the pkg heavier

Never had an issue with them thats why I asked

TNT... Lots of wrappers....


Way back when I first found them, they had a website. It showed a picture of a guy in a lazy-boy with a box of cards in his lap and a big grin. Then the pic changed, slide show style, and he had a box in his lap and a pile of wrappers around his feet. Then next pic the wrappers are up to his knees.... eventually he was completely buried in wrappers.

It was pretty cool.


I have purchased ~1000 cards from him, but that was back in the day....
