edd_jedi said:Is it even possible for an item to be sent to AFA, graded, and returned in 3 weeks? Last time I did it it took over 2 months. I'd say it's impossible to send a figure and receive it back within the 45 days Paypal allow to claim (not to mention deducting however long it took to get the figure to him in the first place.)
I agree, you need proof of the grading rejection.

That is ABSOLUTELY not your problem/responsibility. If he asks you to do that, reply with a flat and firm no. You were selling an action figure, not an AFA gift voucher. If he chose to grade it, that's his business.
I do agree that it's just bad luck on both parts if you didn't realise and he's telling the truth.

I feel for the guy if it is all above board etc. He stated it was AFA initially but it was UK graders it was sent to - he sent the email last night.
I'm concerned that I start refunding (I will have to break my collection up to do this) that I might not get the figure back - In the past folk have wanted their item back from me before any refund - thoughts on this?

Do not refund until you have the figure back!! also contact steve at UKG and and have a chat with him about the touch ups, if they were just marks on the card then it shouldnt be refused, only if the pen is covering damage.

Andy you should ask him why he said he sent it to AFA as that confuses me and probably everyone on here? I could have resolved this for you all straight away....
I hope you don't mind Andy but I have used the pictures from your completed auction on ebay to circle were the ink is so I hope you don't mind me using those images.
Obviously form the auction images you cant see the ink marks but it's more to show you were they are.
The BSG was sent in for grading and we refused as it had ink/pen markings in fact the ink looks at some point part scratched away on the edge of the card but the ink has slightly seeped into the border edge if that makes sense to you?.
The other bit of ink is on the bottom corner but it only covers part of a vein and not all of it.
I hope these pictures make sense from the auction.
To be fair ink touch ups are a nightmare and easily missed the buyer obviously didn't see them before sending it in to us for grading and Andy missed them because they are quite small.
