Frank,
Back in the glory days of ebay, I took several chances on cards with listings like "unknown" and "possible reprint". Back then, I actually had a saved search for "unknown" because people would list things that they knew nothing about or were unsure of. I bought a delong Klein listed as a "new gum card"...very happy when I got it and it was real.
Several w and e-cards came to me this way as well...
with better scans, more knowledgeable collectors, and more reprint sellers, I dont take the chance or the time to search and rarely see anything listed incorrectly as a reprint anymore.
