Why didn't either of my grandfather's collect cards? Scan is bad, story isn't very good. Has really only sold a half dozen or so cards. Feedback is lite. Wouldn't touch it.

Obvious fakes. Although, I am sorry to hear that his grandfather got stuck to something or other...

Lovely Day...

Iggyman - Too funny!!! - I had to go back and reread that. "Pasted".
Good thing I wasn't drinking Tomato Juice when I read that, my computer screen would have looked like a crime scene.

Matthew - love it! I love this board........ or like the seller would have said, I love this bored.

I say FAKE!!!

Top and left borders on each card are very wide while the right border is narrow. Also, the corners are rounded in a uniform way.

If you read the "me" section, it says they are a sports collectibles business which, to me, means they KNOW about grading services but just choose to NOT get these two cards professionally graded. That begs the question WHY?

Of course, there is THEN the story about the Grand Father. Instead of pasted maybe they meant plastered, as in, the Grand Father was falling down drunk when he bought these two cards.
