A real steal!
 
Some are just too good not to share. Red Cobb with a brown Sovereign back!

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Ty-Cobb-Red...cAAOSwCLNbSBmc

The seller also seemingly managed to get $2,000+ on this Bat Off Brown Sovereign back

$2,000 for that ugly reprint? I don't believe it. :eek:

He also sold a T206 Wagner, and he currently has a Cobb Green for sale. Both cards have that stupid Sovereign 460 back. :rolleyes:

I saw that in his feedback. Sold a T206 Wagner for like $171. Buyer left positive feedback: "great card."

Who the heck are these people?

He's right when he says it's a real steal.

Only not so much for the buyer...

If you think that is bad, check the feedback that was left for the T206 Ty Cobb with Sovereign back that sold for $2,025.00, "Positive feedback rating Thanks Buyer: f***7 ( 337Teal star icon for feedback score in between 100 to 499) During past 6 months
Ty Cobb t206!! Look!! Check out Scans!! (#352357297423) US $2,025.00"

The same buyer has bought a Dimaggio, Foxx, Koufax, Joe Jackson, and at least four Ruths... and left positive feedback for each one. And he bought the Cobb for $2K. Probably a fake account and fake sales.

This guy's feedback is hilarious! He's been selling fake Cobbs, Ruths, Wagners, etc. for years. Every once in a while he gets a negative from someone who's angry that the 1951 Topps Mantle that he bought for $150 turned out to be fake. :rolleyes:

My favorite was the guy who bought a lot containing Ruth and some additional cards and left a neutral because the shipping was slow. :eek: You can't make this stuff up.

Good eye, I didn't notice the same person was buying all of those cards.

Wouldn't he be paying fees to ebay for all those sales, even if they are fake? If so, why would you keep doing it?:confused:

Maybe he figures getting all the positive feedback on the reprints will give one person the confidence to bid on them thinking they are real. If he sells one or more reprints for $2025 that would make up for all the fees he is paying.

I don't think the card was sold. Usually it says sold but this says the bidding ended. Maybe it was pulled?

People who like to pay $171 for a poor reprint, that is who. The $2k bat off was a nice looking card.

If you check out this guys positive feedback you will see his recent Aaron sale is the exact same one he sold 6 months earlier. Just scroll down to his next "View Item"
