Posted By: <b>ChiSoxFan</b><p>Was wondering what everyone's thought was on the T206's sold on eBay.<br /><br />Would you say most of the ones in Poor condition are originals?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />ChiSoxFan

Posted By: <b>steve yawitz</b><p>I've probably purchased 200-300 raw T206's on eBay over the years and can't recall receiving a single fake. I'd guess that maybe 2-3 percent of the cards were trimmed and probably a small fraction altered in some way that I - and PSA, since up until about 18 months ago I submitted <i>everything</i> - could not detect. <br /><br />The overall percentage of bogus and doctored cards on eBay is probably higher - you'll quickly learn to avoid sellers whose listings radiate bad vibes from cyberspace straight through your monitor - but I think the risk of buying bunk cards at that end of the condition scale is overstated by those with a vested interested in the grading game.<br><br><a href="http://imageevent.com/yawie99" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://imageevent.com/yawie99</a>
