Help reporting a T206 Cobb fake on Ebay!

[hcv123]

Just ran across this one:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/33424748040...2Cchnl%3Dmkcid

"Reported it" as fake - the more people report it hopefully the quicker it will come down!

And a red Cobb by the same seller amongst other suspect cards he is selling:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/334247455891?hash=item4dd2b36c93:glIAAOSwIqlhl1F Bv

Reported both items. Thank for the heads up.

Done, thank you Howard.

That green Cobb with the Ty Cobb back is so absurd I almost think it’s better to leave it up there so that the buyer learns the phrase caveat emptor. I feel bad for the mother of whoever would drop $5k on that card without doing the minimal research to know it’s an impossible and silly combo.

Dude’s got a whole portfolio of bad fakes. Is there a way to report the seller rather than having to do each of the items separately?

He has never "sold" anything that received more than 1 bid, and I bet its his bid

The guy is a joke, his cards are a joke, and he is not fooling anyone. While 1000% agree this guy's listing should come down, he should get banned from ebay, and he should lose several fingers on his left hand, it appears that nobody is falling for his crap.

From the descriptions on the Ruth and Cobbs, this guy is somewhat knowledgable. He even mentions sending the cards to REA or Heritage. He clearly knows that these are cheap fakes, but goes ahead with these ridiculous auctions. I can't believe anyone with the kind of money that he's asking for would buy such crap without realizing that they're fakes.

My apologies for sounding so much like a newbie, but how do you report a fake card on ebay? When I go to "Report Item" on the listing, I can't find an item for something which is counterfeit.

Do you report it as Listing practices -> Fraudulent listing activities -> You suspect the listing is fraudulent ?


Thanks!

I believe it's under the "copyright and trademark" from there you select "counterfeit item"

He just has the decimal in the wrong place. It should read starting bid of $5.00 with buy it now for $7.50 That's all.

This guy really has come into quite the collection. Very generous of him to offer them all at such discounted prices.

Yet another reason why I love buying from this forum so much. I’ve bought raw cards from people here that I would never dream of purchasing almost anywhere else.
