Default Oh, I don't know about this one........

Who sells reprint autographs which aren't even close to the original signature? I know, this guy listed does, but c'mon.

These types of listings that have a clear goal to be desceptive are a pet peeve of mine.

The screw-down and the bag are worth more than the product.

He does say in the listing that both card and autograph are reprints. I guess he could be preying on folks who don't read descriptions? Nice card.

Seems to be exactly what he is doing, especially since he states " I DO NOT CANCEL BIDS. if you do not read the description then that is your loss."

Default $113

All of his cards are reprints. The Babe Ruth card has been bid up to $113, so it looks like people aren't reading the descriptions.

When using the mobile app on a phone the description is not readily displayed. Yes, he is probably only rooking the most careless of buyers out of a few dollars but I still find it annoying to see someone build a business model centered around catching a windfall on having a sucker get duped. Similar to the guy that lists a BCCG 8 for a BIN price just below or equal to what a PSA 8 can be found for. Its certainly not illegal and you can argue its not even unethical but it isnt respectable.
