Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>That seller has a bogus e90-1 matty as well. There's also a bogus E90-2 Wagner on ebay now that's getting some heavy bids. <br /><br />Until ebay listens to our calls to pull these auctions and really cracks down on the scammers I would strongly advise anyone interested in buying raw vintage cards on ebay to become as educated as possible in the desired issue before bidding.

Posted By: <b>Pennsylvania Ted</b><p>What's even more ridiculous, someone pasted a Southern Leaguer OLD MILL back on this card.<br /><br />Plank's only backs.....<br /><br />Piedmont 150 (one proof card known)<br /><br />Sweet Cap 150, Fac. 25<br /><br />Sweet Cap 350, Fac. 30<br /><br /><br />TED Z

Posted By: <b>peter ullman</b><p>the e90-2 wags must be gone...or relisted...as the only one with bids is real.

Posted By: <b>peter ullman</b><p>aaah...thanks...it's minimally labeled as an e9?...that's why I didn't find it...I guess somebody's tryin' the lottery. Poor sap!<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Matt</b><p>peter - interestingly enough, that exact same E90-2 Wagner is currently for sale from 2 different sellers on ebay - exact same wear pattern, ink on the back etc. Even thought only 1 winning bidder can get the card, both winning bidders will get a headache.

Posted By: <b>peter ullman</b><p>matt...i guess both winners will receive the same facsimile Honus! That's a steep price for a bad fake!<br />

Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>I'm confused. Are you guys saying I should be hesitant to drop $30,000 for a T206 Plank with an impossible back combination from someone whose last 30 positive feedbacks are all for "Susan Lucci Youthful Essence Microderm abrasion Pro Kits?"

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I think 30k is about right....but don't go a penny more.

Posted By: <b>Jim VB</b><p>Just for kicks, I sent the seller an email, telling him his card was a reprint. This is his response, verbatim:<br /><br />"We only have one Plank card and really don't what differen with other Plank card. These collection card been the house so many many and never think we will sell them."<br /><br />If anyone here knows how to translate from Stupid to English, I would appreciate it. <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Craig W</b><p>I also played Q & A with the seller <img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Q: "Hi. Your description of this Plank card says it's a professionally graded SGC 9. Is there some reason it's not in an SGC holder? Thank You."<br /><br />A: "Good question. The information given base on my research. I do not collect them, so I don't know why it not SGC holder. Thank you"<br /><br /><br />Me Tarzan, You Jane! LOL!<br />

Posted By: <b>Adam</b><p>There is a white sticker on the card holder saying [$]40,000 (so that must be what this card is worth). Perhaps the $40,000 sticker is covering up the SGC grade?
