Someone may be out at least $100 because of their lack of knowledge and own stupidity. Can you guys help me report this?!

Haha...nice!

Quick update on the second fake...the seller emailed me back and asked how I could tell it was a fake...said that it's a consignment and he thinks it's real. I dropped some knowledge ;) and gave him several examples, so hopefully he takes it down soon.

You might suggest he learn what a fake card looks like for himself. If he needs to study he can learn from the fake he has.....

I know he doesn't care. I also explained it him days ago and the listing is still there. Reported again to Ebay...O they don't care either- but I feel better at least.

I guess the current asking price for T206 Cobb reprints is $45? I think I have some for $35 if anyone is interested?

Yeah, that's the same reprint that I started this thread about. The seller included some info about being contacted by some of us and said he is listing it as a reprint...whatever. The other reprint was never ended, but the seller said he was going to tell the winner that it's a reprint and he would leave it up to him whether or not he wanted to still purchase it. The seller seemed like a nice and receptive person, but why not just take it down if you know it's a fake??? Where are people's ethics at? It's just too much to ask people to do the right thing when it comes to money. What a shame.
