Things keep going wrong with DCSports87 listings on eBay!

Mike opens his video by examining a troubling pattern of repeated sales of the same card through DC Sports87's eBay listings. A person named Joe from Vaulted Assets purchased a 1994 Action Packed WWF autographed Randy Savage card (serial number 44 out of 500) for $1,300 as a best offer on August 25th after the same card had already been listed and sold multiple times at various prices ($1,675, $650, $3,250) over the previous four weeks. After paying immediately, Joe received no tracking number for weeks and DC Sports87 remained unresponsive. Meanwhile, the same card was relisted and sold again a week later for $7,600 at auction, then again five days later for $1,000 at fixed price—all while Joe's money was held and his item never shipped.

When DC Sports87 finally responded, they claimed there was a wrong part number on the card, that it didn't exist in their inventory system, and that it was never generated in their shipping orders. They provided Joe with a full refund. Mike notes that most of the Card Ladder sale records for this card have been removed, suggesting eBay reported them as canceled or unpaid.

A second, similar incident involving an Adli Rachman 2020 Bowman Chrome red refractor card (circulation of 5) appeared on Reddit. The buyer purchased it well below market value, but DC Sports87 claimed a shipping error and stated they either never had the card or had already sent it elsewhere, resulting in a refund. Mike addresses Reddit speculation that this was a deliberate scam to cancel the underpriced sale and relist for higher profit. Instead, Mike invokes Occam's Razor, arguing that incompetence is more likely than malicious intent, suggesting DC Sports87 simply grew too quickly without proper system infrastructure to handle their volume of sales. Joe apparently agrees with this assessment, noting the company expanded rapidly without understanding their operations.
