1909 Matty Caramel - opinions ?
Posted By: steve
I noticed today on ebay closes a 1909 Mathewson Caramel card, ungraded, listed as high grade, item 110084236094. What are chances its the real deal? |

Very little chance that it is legit. But if you are a gamblin man... Seriously, the scan is not big enough to offer an opinion on authenticity. However, the usual red flags ( private auction, bad feedback etc..) are in place so IMO it would be a losers bet to take the chance. |

I think it is most likely a fake. There have been other fake E cards floating around ebay, including E95 Mathewsons. |

I decided to pass for the reasons mentioned above, and no credit cards or paypal, and in Canada. |

I had wrote her and questioned the authenticity. She told me that she was offered $3000 for the card..but the guy was a jerk so she said no. She then told me she'd take $1200 for it. Now why in the world would someone say they'd take $1800 less than someone else offered based on the first guy being a jerk?? |

Yeah, if its too good to be true, it probably is - I will lay off of it myself - I don't need the potential headaches. Someday, won't just about ALL the nice vintage cards be slabbed? Common sense says new submissions will continue to decrease over time to a trickle, no good stuff eventually left ungraded. Hence, more skepticism over ungraded material. |

I agree that the matty is fake - low feedback, private auction, etc (not to mention that steve has already rec'd a fake from this guy). Nevertheless, there are still deals to be had on raw cards - the e95 cobby being a prime example. |

I did get my money back from his other account, but it took nearly two months and several emails along with returning the fake to Canada etc. |

If the guy was a jerk, she should have been happy to fleece him out of the $1,800 ... And she considers someone who contacts here solely to label her card a fake worthy of the nice guy discount. |
