Bought Atraxa a few days ago off TCGplayer. Seller seems to be trying to scam me.

I would get TCGPlayer involved. I think in all honesty, the most you'll get back is your money. However, at least you CAN get your money back and you aren't backed into a corner. TCGPlayer can't make them send you the card, but it should be known to them that there's a seller that marked your order as shipped and is now claiming the card is incorrect conveniently hours after it nearly doubles in price.
Good luck to you!

You can back them in a corner, before bringing in TCG, you might wanna say something like
I'd hate to have to get TCG Player support or write a negative review but I don't see any other option if you can't ship me the card I purchased for the original price.

Ive already done the submit a request option. Though I did call them out on it seeming like they are trying to keep it due to the spike.

I don’t get why this is downvoted. This is correct. They are the scumbags here. If you purchased at an agreed upon price and suddenly the card is worth more it’s still agreed upon. If I go to a store and buy jtms at 20$ and I leave they don’t get the chance to say actually sir you owe me 80$ in addition to what we agreed upon.

Find a way to report them and get a refund and just move on.

This happened to me when I pre-ordered Tefero, Hero of Dom when he was at 15. Get Tcgplayer involved and don't be afraid to shame the store and make posts warning others of them specifically.
Tcgplayer will probably credit you for the current value if push comes to shove, but the negative press will cost them far more than the price increase of the card

Open a claim. Tcg will refund you.
If not contact your bank or paypal or however you paid and issue a charge back
Give the seller negative feedback.
They either have the card or they don’t. If they’re not going to be reputable it’s not like threatening them on a silly card selling site will induce any fear.
Sometimes it helps to only deal with stores with high sales or the tcg direct vendors. Chasing the bottom you often times are dealing with randos. And those are normally the shady people

Removing post per rule #3 must be related to EDH. Something like this might be more at home in the main magic sub.

Uh, use TCGPlayer instead of writing to a crowd of randoms?

I was asking for info on what to do, its kinda confusing trying to go through TCGplayers pages to figure out the right method to contact them or report the seller. Hell I spent like 10+ minutes looking for a report button.

That’s an absolute scam.
You bought it before she apparently doubled in price? And you sent them the money already? Then you still get the card. That’s how buying things works.
Report this to TCGPlayer, get them involved. They’re either going to send you back your card or give you a full refund and get some kind of reprimanding from TCGPlayer.
Do you just go through the Submit a request thing or is there a different thing specifically for people who may be scamming?
Send them an email ([email protected])
You can also bring up the Seller Agreement , which I’m sure brings up fraud and shipping requirements.
Ahh well Submit a request thing sent it to [email protected] Should I send a second one then or just wait for TCGplayer?
I’d send it to the second one, because zendesk is outsourced customer support and you likely won’t get any help there.
Tcgplayer definitely tells you to contact that other email address.
