I am 100% sure they paid less than half in graded form what the card is selling for raw. They stupidly think that someone wants to spend $3,000-$4,000 on the card and wish to keep it raw. That is the only way the scam works on that card. Unfortunately for them, someone spending that much money IS NOT wanting to keep it raw. Their greed cost them on that particular item.

wow...
Pretty crazy stuff...
They're certainly not the only seller that participates in such behavior. I recently sold a really nice looking HOF rookie, that PSA wouldn't grade (N4 - Minimum Size.) I know grading is subjective, and heck, the card could've graded if I sent it in again - but frustrated with it all, I listed it on eBay, with full disclosure. I even included a scan of PSA's "MINSIZE" label. It sold for under $70. The buyer currently has it listed for sale as "Pack Fresh" and it has a $200 bid. Money trumps everything and some people will continue to participate in such activities as long as they can get away with it. Todd M@ncuso |

This is what they send with their packages to help minimize the number of claims against them. It also shows how to directly contact them outside of EBay so that communications are 'off of the grid'.

I had a funny thought about Battlefield's Green Cobb yesterday. The next person to buy it should take it to the Pawn Stars with a printout of the ebay listing and see if they will buy it. I think if people see the blue background on the card they might start catching onto Battlefield's selling tactics, or the Pawn Stars can get stuck with the card probably forever. And if they don't buy it you can leave negative feedback claiming the card was so bad that the Pawn Stars don't even want it. Even better would be if Rick calls in his buddy from PSA to look at the card and tell the whole world how bad the card is.

Yes, I liked how the person had to be an expert in the field, never be wrong, have an eBay account, and not sell in the category they are an expert in. LOL Seemed to me like a way to disqualify everyone.

So wait, how does Battlefield make her money? Are there people who buy thousand dollar baseball cards and DON'T return them when they find out that the edges are all chewed up &etc.?
|
#265
|
||||
|
||||
She must be making money on the small stuff, the commons and such. The ones that aren't worth grading.... or returning.

Bingo!! And the person looking for a raw Hank Aaron rookie card - and intends to keep it that way.

One thing that really helps battlefield is that once she refunds the buyers of these cards they very seldom leave feedback. Most of her negative feedback is from inexpensive cards.

I'm almost positive Battlefield is at least her second incarnation as a seller. Can't remember the previous name she used though. I remember when she started as Battlefield and I think she even touted her previous sales.

T-206 green Cobb Battlefield 0516
Well like someone said the Green T-206 Cobb is for sale again on Ebay. Of course the last time it was on there it got shilled so many times to get the price up but no one fell for it! I emailed her to ask if she thought the card was trimmed but have not heard back yet. My guess is that I won`t here back at all.
|
#272
|
||||
|
||||
She's at it again.
Omggggggggggg
|
#273
|

I'm impressed there are back scans for some of the cards and not all of the scans show perfect cards this time around.

Wow 7 bids on the green Cobb already and there are still 6 days left to go. How high does it go this time?

#277

Lots of these raw cards are sold over and over..I am not sure ebay really cares, otherwise one would think they would do something about their practices, after it is reported and proven beyond a reasonable doubt they are committing fraud...(so it seems)

Well, how about the board stages a boycott of eBay starting May 1 until Battlefield's account has been cancelled and she has been banned from eBay? I will. I may be a small fish, but I can cancel all my listings the last day of April and not buy anything via eBay until the battlefield account is pulled.

So if someone buys the green Cobb and returns it again do they still get the Ebay buck for it? If so someone will cleanup on that deal.

The present T206 Cobb green is not the same one returned multiple times for being trimmed; it is part of a huge listing of a near set of T206s auctioned over 3 days. Look carefully at her wording. Now she says each card has been measured, meets standard criteria and should grade. This is a marked departure from prior auctions where questionable cards always seemed to be called nrmt+ etc. She has definitely joggled her business platform and, damn, most of cards seem ok, lots of diamond cut nice looking copies. Star card already attracting plenty of action on the first day of bidding.
Never a dull moment with Battlefields. This thread has lots of followers. |

I agree, it does sound promising, but until someone purchases one and has it graded, we will never know if she is now telling the truth? All items are 100% authentic & unaltered unless otherwise specified in the description. Almost everything always starts at $0.99 with no reserve so please check out our other auctions! This week we are proudly auctioning off the finest set we have ever owned. A 1909-11 T206 Near Complete Set! 520 of the cards in the set (only missing the big 4) are being auctioned off this week over a 3 day period. We have taken the time to measure every card in the set and other than a handful that appear to be slighty miscut, all cards measure correctly and show no evidence of trimming. These cards are the real deal! In our opinion every card in the set is worthy of professional grading. All cards have been placed in brand new BCW Tobacco card insert sleeves specifically designed for T206 cards and brand new Ultra Pro top loaders for maximum protection. Opportunities to bid on this many T206 cards at one time don't come around very often. Don't miss out on these!

Well, two reasons: I had a $500 bid in on a lot ending in four days (but it just got outbid this morning) and I figured starting on May Day had a nice ring to it, and would allow for greater vintage community collectors to learn of it before starting.

Might have been mentioned above but large number of t206's up for sale now. Clearly trimmed with descriptions like..."breathtaking"... so misleading.

Is it known where she acquired this "near set" of T-206s from?

All those t206's are either spectacular, breathtaking, or phenomenal. Just ask Elaine Benes, aren't they breathtaking Elaine? What a scummer.

why do people keep referring to battlefield as "she?"
isn't "she" confirmed to be DEAD????? |
#291

No. That is a coincidence I believe.
If you call someone picks up that supposedly knows her. |

The green and red Cobbs are completely gone when I look. I can't find them under completed, sold or current auction search criteria.
Is this a rolling blackout or were they removed? |
#293

Removed, You are welcome...

Hardly Kosher during an auction. I suspect somebody offered a ton of $'s for them and away they flew.

Wrong again, ebay removed them. They are not taking kindly to Battle's shenanigans much more...so it seems.

I think only 2 cards were reported and both were taken down. If anything else happens I have no idea. My guess is all items get bought and a lot of them get returned with some negatives given, but not nearly enough. Things are still being worked through but hopefully in the future it will be quicker getting bad stuff taken down on ebay. Had there been 83 things reported (or anymore than were) I am not sure anything would have happened. Baby steps....
