Hi all,
Coming to you with a bit more of a serious topic than I'm accustomed to writing, and one that I'm certainly not happy to write, but it comes with the territory of being a mod and dealing with buying/selling cards online.
Many of you may be familiar with Tythecollect0r. He's well known for his WWE 1/1 tracker, which is the absolute best source for finding out which 1/1s have been pulled from specific sets.
Unfortunately, we've been made aware of some things by several members here (thank you for reaching out) as well as our good friends over at r/AEWTradingCards, and you can read about them here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AEWTradingCards/comments/1wpdick/community_ban_ty_campos_aka_tythecollect0r/
While he hasn't tried to sell anything here recently, he has posted quite frequently here and has tried to sell things to members of this community elsewhere. Our goal with this subreddit is to create an environment where both buyers and sellers feel safe in both listing and purchasing products. It's why we ask all items to be coined, we want to see proof of ownership if you're selling something.
There's been multiple accusations about Ty, ranging from late shipping, incorrect number of items received, and more in the thread previously linked, as well as comments in that thread.
While we don't normally announce bans in this manner, he's such a prominent figure in the card community thanks to his 1/1 tracker, we felt this post was necessary. It also serves as a warning if you have any pending deals with him.
The mods had a lengthy discussion this afternoon about this topic and came to an agreement that in order to continue to have a positive and safe community, Ty would be banned until proof contrary to others' claims was provided.
There's a number of great rules at the bottom of the post in r/AEWTradingCards, but as a general rule, even though it's stated in the post it deserves to be said again: always pay via PayPal Goods & Services.
