Posted By: <b>Max Weder</b><p>Perhaps a rhetorical question, but my guess would be the next auction of this card won't have "REPRODUCTION" in capital letters, if at all.

Posted By: <b>John S</b><p>Good point Max. The individuals who sell these "antiqued" reprints and disclose that they are reprints are just as guilty as the individual who purchases with the intent of re-selling as "possibly authentic". They are wholesale hustlers. <br /><br />As mentioned in other threads multiple times, these types of ploys will only continue to increase in number as the market for card contimues to become more lucrative.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>It makes no sense, considering that anyone looking at the listing could make a better looking reprint on his or her own computer printer. If it was a reprint (in better condition!) by Topps Chewing Gum, Fleer or Perez-Steele, then you might reasonably expect it will be a superior looking reprint than you could possibly make.<br /><br />This is equivalent to offering on eBay for $5 a computer printout of the Net54 web page, when anyone can print out a copy of the Net54 web page for free.
