New Breed Of T206 Counterfeits
 
Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>I've never seen these before. They look almost home-made. I am very surprised by the number of bids already. The seller is not using a private auction, so it would be possible to contact bidders to alert them to this fraud.<br /><br /><a href="http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&from=R10&satitle=t 206&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6&bs=Search&sadis=200&fpos=10167&ftr t=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&seller=1&sass=5holesi none&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&coaction=compare&copagenum= 1&coentrypage=search" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&from=R10&satitle=t 206&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6&bs=Search&sadis=200&fpos=10167&ftr t=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&seller=1&sass=5holesi none&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&coaction=compare&copagenum= 1&coentrypage=search</a>

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>I've emailed the seller, his reply was he was selling cards for a friend and did not know about old cards. Said he'd take them off eBay. We'll see. <br /><br />As of Sunday morning, only 2 bidders, both shills?? I've contacted both, warning them of the reprint status.<br /><br />I like contacting the sellers, where you ask them a question. Dear seller, the T206 card you've listed is a reprint. Type is wrong, color of backs are wrong. Rather than have lots of trouble when some buyer gets the card and sees it is a reprint, why don't you end the auction and avoid the fraud problems you'll face, now that you know the card is not real?<br /><br />I've had several bidders express gratitude after cautioning them on bogus T206s and E145s.<br /><br />Frank.

Posted By: <b>joe brennan</b><p> But, they are absolutely awful reprints. outer boarders are bigger than the card and the type is all in Caps, with the wrong type? Ray Charles e-mailed me and said they looked like reprints.<br /><br />Moral Values " What would you do if no one was looking? Only you would know" Instilled in me by James W. Brennan Sr.

Posted By: <b>Jim F</b><p>Is it just me or does Ohio seem to be a hotbed of this kind of stuff? I wonder if it is one person that is passing these off on other sellers. Jim

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Hey Joe, you know Ray Charles couldn't possibly have emailed you about what those cards look like! He's dead! <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
