Nice write up on this one. And what a great return policy! Get your bids in early on these. They are going fast...

Are they in fact real, or fake?

Wow what a great seller.

He takes returns

Makes purchasing easy and stress free

And only charges a small return fee of 50%

Bid with confidence

I've been reporting all of this seller's listings to eBay for the past few days, but looks like they're all still up.

I am not saying it is right

But

Part of me is not surprised that ebay most likely going to do nothing.

Because technically this seller is being upfront and advising what he does and how he does it.

So if a buyer buys from him it is on them since the seller spelled everything out

Huh? This is his description:

"The majority of our cards are bought and sold 'raw' which means they are not graded. Since they are not graded, there will be differing opinions on condition, and we cannot guarantee complete authenticity. However, our products are always sourced from reputable sellers/dealers."

All of his cards are very clear fakes. Not even close. He knows they are all fake, but he gives a bullshit description/disclaimer that implies they are real and which violates eBay's terms. How is he "being upfront and advising what he does and how he does it?" If he were being upfront, he would tell everyone that he makes fake cards and then sells them as possibly real.

He currently has 396 listings on eBay. They are all fake cards.

They aren't even very good fakes
I have handled quite a few fakes and real ones ... One major tell is the way the backs look. They look like they were soaked in coffee or something.

Thank you, sir!

I think ebay finally restricted this person's account.
He had several auctions up which were obviously fake. I was reporting him a couple days ago. Now when you click on any of these listings below you get an error page on ebay.
Good! These people need to be turned over to the cops for selling forgeries as being legit. This is intentional and criminal.

[jingram058]

Well, whenever something looks too good to be true, it is, always. These would be a most excellent little set, if only...

Good News that Ebay took action and restricted them

I clicked on his sold items, and 30 plus showed up. So I'm not sure that eBay has restricted him. Hopefully all those sales will be voided and everybody will get their money back.

I have no sympathy for anyone who buys from this dirtbag.

It seems a bit convoluted to me that Ebay throws a hand grenade at PWCC but let this suck and others like him get away with deception.
