Default Ebay Seller ACOFIND still selling repros/fakes

Yet another reminder this seller sells fakes, trying to pass off as originals, don't fall for it.

Search ACOFIND here for numerous chains about them

I cringe every time I see their listings! I almost bought a Johnny Mize Redman poster off of them when I first started collecting. I asked the dealer at my local card shop and he thought it was good. Thank goodness I searched their name in Google and stumbled upon a thread on Net54 about them! And that's how I was introduced to Net54

See folks; repetition does work!! These fraud threads, though some say are repetitive, seem to have helped a lot of collectors over the years. Thanks to all who point out bad stuff going on.

The messages I received from this guy is just crazy... All he wanted to know was if I was a buyer or a waste of his time. I told him he should consider getting them graded...

Being fairly new here and new to this collecting thing, I am surprised by the amount of counterfeits/fakes that get posted/shown.

I knew it existed but I didn't realize it was that rampant. Sad, actually, and likely nothing can be done with these types I assume?

Was planning on maybe going to an upcoming Card show in T.O. this coming April and possibly purchasing some cards, if the price was right, but now I am hesitant about going as I really won't have a clue if what I am purchasing is real or fake (if I don't do a sh*tload of homework prior) as I assume these "crooks, as that's how I see them, attend these shows as well?

ACOFIND has been selling his junk for years and eBay doesn't care. You report him maybe they take the crap down and maybe they don't. If they do, then in six months it will be back up again and eBay won't take it down a second time.

ACOFIND also sells under the names of "theolestuff" and "fourducks".

You can use the toolhaus website to see his Negative feedback for all three names.

just a reminder.....they are back selling repros, don't fall for it

the prick is polluting the hobby though as you can see completed sales, then good chance these will be sold by the buyers under different id's

I think a number of us have several stories.

ACOFIND is back with more fakes/garbage.

Just keep the name burned in your brain should you stumble across them in your Ebay searches, all garbage:
