Keep the following in mind and you'll protect yourself from the majority of JNugg scams found on Ebay.
1. Before purchasing your Jerry's Nugget deck, familiarize yourself with the seller. Learn as much as you can about their past by checking their Ebay Feedback page. Here's where you'll discover how long they've been a member, see their Ebay reputation score, and read actual comments left by customers who've dealt with them. Basically, you're trying to avoid doing business with those who have poor numbers and negative comments. If you see ANY in the seller's feedback page, consider yourself warned.
2. A common sneaky tactic used by seasoned Ebay Scammers is to sell one legitimate item, then have the customer leave perfect feedback. That way, they achieve a 100% reputation score. Don't be fooled into believing this cheap trick. Examine exactly how many times the seller has previously sold something. Specifically, as a rule of thumb, you want to do business with those who have a high volume of sales.
3. Carefully read the description to the end. Once finished, re-read it again out loud to make sure you understand what you're purchasing. Take note of any deceptive words used by the seller in their description. Stay away from auctions that use words like replica, reprint and special edition - all words for FAKE. There are NO approved substitutes! Anything but an original deck is a knock-off and an insult to Jerry's Nugget Casino, customers and collectors of authentic decks.
4. If you've purchased a Jerry's Nugget deck which wasn't accurately portrayed in the product description, you need to contact the seller and demand a refund. Work it out, so you get your money back, before you return the deck. No negotiations! Make sure to take good notes when communicating with the seller, and save copies of all correspondences, in case you have to take matters to Ebay.
5. If the seller refuses to refund you, then fill out an eBay fraud report. Don't waste your time arguing, simply let Ebay's team of experts do their job and solve the matter efficiently and effectively. When offered the opportunity, leave the worst negative feedback score and comments possible, so you can warn others not to do business with this seller. Don't ever let 'em do this to anyone ever again. Bring on the pain!
Good luck everyone!
