In an unrelated issue - doesn't ebay have a list of cards that are not allowed to be sold raw? <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1933-GOUDEY-53-BABE-RUTH-ROOKIE-CREASES-YET-NICE-NR_W0QQitemZ310076816611" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1933-GOUDEY-53-BABE-RUTH-ROOKIE-CREASES-YET-NICE-NR_W0QQitemZ310076816611</a> Perhaps the rules are different when you are a powerseller who chooses to pay the premium listing fees that ebay would lose should they decide to cancel your listings.

Posted By: barrysloateIsn't that Leon's old card?

Archive

Posted By: Dan BrettaIt is the same card that Leon had. I didn't realize Leon had sold it, but I checked his website and it's the same card he has listed in his personal collection.

Posted By: Dan BrettaI emailed the seller to tell him that this card belongs to a friend of mine and he replied back immediately with the following: "these are stock pictures thats why i have the card im in the process of moving thats why i cant upload acutal pics and the reason of sale thanks alot for the accusations" Yeah...right..

Posted By: Dan BrettaI replied back with "Yeah right" and he replied back with this gem: "why would someone sell a card like this im in a eviction situation if your willing to help me ill unlist my card but i need money oh and why does it trouble you you are not obligated to bid are you?"

Posted By: Dan BrettaI've asked him to prove to me that he owns an SGC 30 Ewing by giving me the serial number on the slab...we'll see how fast he replies to that request.

Posted By: Dan BrettaOkay, she responded...her name is Lori Maxwell. "ok be on tomorrow afternoon the card is in storage like i said im going through eviction so when i drop off the next load ill write down the number (but from what i recall these cards dont have numbers)"

Posted By: Anthony S.Very rare card. Financial distress. Must sell. She's in NYC. Send in The Bruces.

Posted By: leonI did sell that card, which I believe originated from the Corson collection, on one of the biggest BST auction sales I have seen. It went to another board member who is a little more private and I won't divluge anymore than that. It is a great card but that ebay person is far from having it....regards

Posted By: Marty OgelvieNo doubt its a great card but if I were going to use a "STOCK" photo, I certainly would NOT have picked that one.. but I suppose they needed one with creases...   I guess I am not a good scam artist because I would grabbed a PSA 8 stock photo and really went for the bank roll...   what do I know.  martyOgelvie

Posted By: MattMarty - if you went for the 8 it would be too good to be true and no one would believe you actually had the card; the 2 is much more convincing.

Posted By: barrysloateShe owns a $50,000 baseball card but she is being evicted. Why not sell the card before the eviction goes into effect? What an idiot.

Posted By: Robert KlevensDid somebody really bid on it?

08-28-2008, 05:32 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaI have been going back and forth with this person who claims to be "lori Maxwell" in email for a bit and oddly enough I got a Yahoo IM request from someone named "Stephen ***"...I complied with the request, but that person denied me immediately. I googled his name and it comes up with a postcard dealer in New Jersey. Coincidence? Maybe, but I've been an Yahoo IM for years and have never gotten a request from someone I don't know.

Posted By: Vanessa PhippsI just sent this person this mesg.: Wow! Not only are you a scam artist about to go to jail if you recieve money for this card, but you are an idiot!! You spell like my 1 year old daughter. Anyone who would really own this card would be able to spell. You should do a google search for Ebay baseball card fraud and check out the prison sentences being handed down to scam artists like yourself. Good luck! As some of you might remember I was ripped off by a Ebay scammer on a 52 Mantle card. I would love to get one of these people put into jail!!!!

Posted By: leonGet your looks while you can....I went ahead and reported it. Some time ago ebay asked me to join a special group for reporting fraud in sports cards and memorabilia, as they know a little about me (their loss <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>). I don't really report much but when I do they usually take care of it. Idiot seller should go to jail imo......

Posted By: Michael SteeleDarn! I was thinking of placing a bid because you know, it is free shipping and they have 1 total feedback and they have changed their ebay id in the last 30 days. Perfect when I am comptemplating a 20k plus purchase! Egads....These just keep getting dumb and dumber all the time.

08-28-2008, 05:55 PM

Posted By: Vanessa PhippsThey responded very fast with this msg.: "yea check my feedback a couple days after the card is bought" LOL!!!

08-28-2008, 06:02 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaMichael, I hadn't even noticed that they changed their ebay handle....His old handle had the name "Steve" in it. Interesting isn't it? Just another coincidence? A further Google search of Stephen *** pulled up his high school picture...he graduated in 1959 which would make him 66 or 67 years old. Too old for a scam like this?

Archive

08-28-2008, 06:04 PM

Posted By: barrysloateAfter what card is bought? He/she doesn't even own it. If the supposed winning bidder gets scammed for 50K he probably won't leave really good feedback.

Posted By: Anthony S.Don't Ebay handles get hijacked sometimes?

Archive

08-28-2008, 06:09 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaThey do get hijacked, but that would have nothing to do with someone named "Steve" trying to IM me on Yahoo while I'm having a back and forth email conversation with the seller who also uses Yahoo mail. edited to add: I think this person accidentally IM'ed me when they were trying to send an email instead.

08-28-2008, 06:09 PM

Posted By: leonI was 100% sure but for what it's worth I just had a good chat with the owner. I told him about it being for sale on ebay.....he laughed....of course he still has it....it's a great card....

Posted By: leonI am not a big ebay policy fan nowadays but they did good on this one. They also sent me a message about not answering that seller's emails or paying for anything. "Attaboy" Ebay........ edited grammar a bit

Posted By: barrysloateLeon- now look what you did...the poor girl is going to get evicted. And you just put her out on the street!

Archive

08-28-2008, 06:58 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaI actually now think that it was a coincidence that this guy tried to IM me...I've been in contact with him and I'm fairly certain he is not the perpetrator of the fraudulent ebay auction.

Posted By: Dan LundriganThis might work out well for her if she is being evicted and forced to live on the streets.She can have a place to live in PRISON! I always try to find the silver lining in every situation!

Posted By: Anthony S.The majority here know these two are reprints, but on the off chance you're new to collecting the T206 set, avoid these Cobbs (see links) like the plague. The "AUTHTCT?" flips are an interesting touch, though I'm not sure where they came up with the last "t" in authentic. <a href="http://tinyurl.com/697hw7" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/697hw7</a> <a href="http://tinyurl.com/5soj2x" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/5soj2x</a>

Posted By: Jim VBAnthony, "?AUTHTCT" is PSA shorthand for "Questionable Authenticity." Thus, the third "t".

Posted By: jay woltSomeone tries to defraud the public selling a high $ card they do not own and all eBay does is remove the auction. Would be great if charges were pressed like in the real world if you do a crime of this magnitude.
