Goocollect.com … legit or scam?
 
Prices seem too good to be true. New eBay account as well selling 2 1933 Goudey Ruth’s.


https://www.ebay.com/itm/22556354735...mis&media=COPY


Seen other EBay sellers try this, listing cards at impossible prices and only lasting on eBay for a few days until their scams are reported. Any info? Appreciate it and TIA

Here is what I see - a foreign seller, with zero feedback, who lists a PSA Ruth #144 sitting in a PSA 2.5 #53 flip. Tell you what, send me $2000 and I will send you a box of packing peanuts, thus saving you $10.4k plus state tax.

If it walks and quacks like a duck…..it’s a 🦆

And anyone that uses a tactic like this to link to their website and bypass ebay is shady as f****

Website says they're in Utah. EBay account says they're in Canada.

If they do not have a strong reviews and ratings i

either pass or look to see if they are on FB, instagram etc to try and validate them/references or as I first said just do not bother and skip it

Scammer! They keep popping up on ebay. A few months ago I e-mailed the seller, who was actually a French company, with questions about their validity, and they said their account had been hacked. It usually takes ebay a day to take the listings off, but they keep popping up.

Does that allow them to avoid the ebay guarantee?

Have seen the exact same, multiple times from different sellers. Impossible cards offered from established sellers who aren’t in collectibles. French & Canadian. This is the first time seen it with a fresh account.

Thanks everyone for the replies everyone! Appreciate it :)

The auction never stays up long enough to reach the closing date. They are trying to direct people to their website and purchase it directly rather than thru eBay soo there is no eBay guarantee. Looks like eBay is playing Whack-a-Mole with them, but I'm just surprised eBay takes so long to shut them down.

If you have to ask, please just stop using eBay.
