I was browsing through Ebay and saw a fake 1949 Babe Ruth up for sale. The card has a blury photograph and a description saying that it was passed down from his grandfather. This is a warning to all fellow Net54Baseball members...here is the link.

He also has a Gretzky rookie card up for over $300 and just happened to purchase the exact reprint card a week ago on ebay.

I've noticed that he has a buch of fakes or reprints up and is listing them as cards his grandfather passed down to him. I feel bad for all of the people who spen double figures on these obvious fakes...the Ruth ended up sailing for 300 bucks. Wonder if he also has people bidding it up for him.....

This is a flaw in eBay system. This guy has feedback of 41 (100%) in 2 months, all as buyer. Several are negative positives. Now he is pouncing to the tune of $1000.
