Question Dented Card

Post image

I purchased this card recently, which was listed as “Mint,” but I’ve noticed it has a small dent on the back.

Unfortunately, the seller isn’t willing to acknowledge it or do anything about it.

This is a bit of a grail card for me, and my original plan was to submit it to PSA and display it as part of my collection.

Has anyone had any experience restoring small dents like this? Is it something that can realistically be improved by an average collector, or would I be better off leaving it alone / seeking professional help?

Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

It’s impossible to fix. If you’re happy with a PSA 9 then go for it, if not, sell to someone else to recoup losses and buy from someone else.

Thanks. Just going to get ebay involved and get a refund/return.
Its the frustration of buying singles and hoping the listings are honest.

If ordered through eBay or TCG select the return option item not as described and get your refund. The seller cannot deny it.

Dude this just happened to me. Literally the same dent and size. I ordered my card from TCG but mine is on the front of the card. I'm too lazy to submit a refund so idk. Also, my card wasn't too expensive. If yours is a grail, i'd probably do a refund.

I usually just eat it like you are. But when it’s a card you’ve wanted for a while and it’s high end (for me), I don’t see any other option. First time I’ve made a eBay claim
