It is quite obvious what they are doing,. Here is, what looks to be, 7k+ of fraud in these 3 auctions.

Hopefully, the buyers of these cards see this thread and take action with the appropriate authorities.

The auction houses should be notified and ban these scammers.

So the 55 Bowman Mantle that John, Yoda, bought was once graded authentic. I would say that he is not as happy with the card as he was earlier in the day. Hopefully something can be done to stop these scammers.

Yes, the '55 Bowman Mantle sold in REA had 2 distinct print dots in the lower right portion of the card, and these were not visible in the war eagle auction. This should be a telltale sign for John when he receives the card.

Just to add a pinch of intrigue, my '55 Bowman Mantle does not have the tell tale white dots, measures fine, nor any alterations that I can spot, but that doesn't mean something nefarious didn't go down and the card won't grade. I am embarrassed that I bought Earl's story hook line and sinker, but what the hell. I felt like taking a chance, but am so glad I didn't win the 3 Mantles. If the winner has been reading this post, they must be appalled.
Leon, I recall you had some contact with somebody at Ebay about Battlefields some time back. Shouldn't they contacted? This latest egregious example is borderline fraud.
