So, I wonder who has the Ty Cobb card with the Leach flip?

Unbelievable. It seems like every day there is something wrong with a graded card/Flip.

You have to give the seller an A+ for his audacity: lies about the card he's selling AND gives the next higher grade value for the card. As if one lie in the listing didn't meet his quota for the day.

Interested how someone would defend the seller's listing in this case.

Come on, guys. How is the seller supposed to know it's Leach just because it says so on the card? All he knows is that it should have graded higher. That part he knows PSA got wrong.

I really hope that person is simply just ignorant when it comes to cards. Sadly, I don't think that's the case. Even more sad is if someone actually buys it.

Then again, nobody is going to touch that auction so that might be a good way to pick up Leach for a good price!

The seller is a frequent seller and buyer of pre-war cards. He knows it is not Cobb.....

Barry - I can't take any credit for the heads - in a recent thread, Steve Murray used it to "be more indignant regarding this sleazy seller." That certainly applies here.

Check out the scammer's "additional information" posted 06:24 PDT. Pretty hilarious -- or it adds more fodder to the PSA-bashers' case.

What a lowlife. Because PSA won't stop ripping him off he decides to pass it down the line. Not that anyone could be dumb enough to buy this card as a Cobb -- except perhaps the PSA grader who handled the card and the various PSA reps that won't take it back?

As Joe O says, "Never get cheated -- unless I'm the one doing the cheating!"

Did anyone save a picture of the card? The listing has been removed.

Thanks,

Sean, imagine an E93 Leach with a flip that reads Cobb. That's the card.

Jeff

with all due respect why did you believe what that guy said?

Just because he stated PSA wouldn't take it back?

He was bothered that he had to pay for it to get back to them is
how I read it.

I have had an error like that one time and one email later I had the form
and all I had to do was pay to ship it to them.


I find it odd that in one breath you call him a liar then in the other
you believe his anti psa rant.

Steve, you're 100 percent right. He may have just used that as an excuse to blame PSA for his fraud. And I agree, it's hard to imagine PSA not taking the card back. I suppose the insanity of PSA mixing up an E93 Leach with an E93 Cobb had me thinking that if PSA was dopey enough to make that mistake they may have been just as dopey in refusing to correct their mistake.

lol anything is possible.

What is funny, though, last month I auctioned off a 1954 Paige and a 0
feedback bidder won, long story short the guy stiffed me and I negged him,
lo and behold this guy (ss64chevy) got stiffed by the same 0 feedback bidder
and he too negged the guy. I then looked at his feedback and did not like
what I saw, so this leach/Cobb card is not the only nonsense this guy has been involved in.

I guess it goes in the small world file.

Steve

PSA wants a scan of the card, I did save the cert number...maybe they want to change what it says on the cert verification look-up?

Wouldn't you pay a premium for a mistake on a PSA flip?
