DDI have purchased a lot of stuff on Clist, but only one pre-war lot.
About 3-4 years ago I purchased about $1500 worth of pre-war cards on Clist, including an uncatalogued Ruth item. I met the guy at a Starbucks in Manhattan, examined the cards, and paid him in cash.
There were about 20-30 cards, including a Big Head Ruth strip card, another Ruth strip card, a T206 red background Cobb, and some other cards.
The Ruth was a tag from an article of clothing (I think), and was produced in Brooklyn. It was orange colored, and square shaped.
I remember at some point someone on this board posting a photo of it that it was their favorite Ruth item. If I remember correctly, I sold it for $1200, and the rest of the cards for about $1500. Not bad for about a 2 week turnaround.
