Default Taking A Gamble On A Cobb

Posted By: Phil

Yeah, I was watching this auction too, but never bid due to the 0 feedback. That's not to say it is not legite, but very questionable. I'm sure if you are new to eBay, you have start sometime, but when I looked at his other listings, that's when the red flags went up for me. His listing of cards really had no connection other than the fact that they were key cards in different sports.
He had: Gretzky Rookie, Michael Jordan Rookie, Joe Namath Rookie, Gordie Howe Rookie, a Babe Ruth 33 Goudey, Johnny Unitas Rookie, and Lew Alcindor Rookie.

That just seemed "all over the place to me". If he had a bunch of T206s, then I might have been more inclined to bid.

Now he has a bunch of nice Mickey Mantle cards. I've been keeping my eye on this to see if he ever gets a positive feedback. It just seemed to me that I wasn't willing to lose $600 to take a chance on a nice Cobb. This will be interesting to see how it turns out.
