Posted By: <b>Peter Calderon</b><p>That is usually the standard routine for a scam - bad photo, and a "I'm no expert, blah, blah, blah" line in the description. Another good sign the card is fake is when they state boldly "Guaranteed Original, NOT a reproduction!" Also look for the line "estate sale". Almost all of the cards I've seen on ebay from "estate sales" have been reprints.<BR><BR>I like how this guy says "20 Years of Card Collecting" but had to go to another person to find out it is a T206 card?
