Question about eBay seller
 

http://shop.ebay.com/wedgehead53/m.h...&_trksid=p4340

I was just wondering if anyone might know the above eBay seller. He has several T206 cards for sale, but has zero feedback.

Don't know him but I'd give him a chance.

Got a kick out of his description of Irv Young:

"Nobody knows a damn thing about Irving except that he played for Minneapolis."

probably fine
 

He has no Wagner, Cobb, Mathewson etc......and no grandpa's attic. He is probably fine. Emailing him to find out where he got them could add another layer of comfort level. Good luck....(yes, love the Irv description)

i think you are safe, he is selling commons.... he probably has alot more seeing his 10 cards has 10 different backs.. may be a good idea to make him a fav seller for future reference. Or even direct him to this site....

Thanks for the advice gentlemen; I did an eBay "Ask a Question" about the cards. Also, his feedback rating has been updated from zero to one now.

I like this seller already
 

Happy Smith play outfield for the Brooklyn Superbas! They forgot the "R".

don't know the seller but I would bid in these auctions-There is a nice Chicago Cycle 460...:D

yesssss.....I noticed that Cycle 460 myself :cool:

Up in the Sky .....
 

It's a bird .....

It's a plane .....

No .....

It's a flock of N54's goin afta the Cycle 460

Is that Pfeffer Cycle 460 trimmed at the top?

Uh Oh .....
 

Me thinks that someone else is joining the flock.

the old "you don't want it, it's trimmed" routine.......

Again Fubar, it all depends on .....

It all depends on whether you belong to the Investor, or Collector flock. :)

i'm a collector.... dont think i could ever do it for an investment! I barely ever sell anything, i usually trade.

Jim, you say that you're a collector, and I believe you .....

But if you read what you write, it sometimes almost sounds like the mind set of an investor ... It looks like I was wrong ... Happy collecting. :)

i can look at things from both perspectives... definitely not an investor though...I collect what makes me happy... currently that is UFC cards.

When i am finally working again, i will be active on the BST, but probably only in a buying aspect, maybe the occasional trade. I generally dont buy things to sell them.. seems pointless. I am not opposed to it, but it is usually not my priority.

However, if a deal came around like Greenmonster, where i pick up 5000 cards, im only going to keep ones i like and get rid of the rest. But i will cut deals to people. I believe in karma and paying it forward.

I'm definitely a collector... a tortoise, not a hare.

Yes daryl is a collector :d.

I sold my only Cycle 460 back in 2007 and have regretted it ever since. I am primarily a collector and baseball historian, but I'll admit my younger brother is more interested in the $$ side of collecting sometimes.
speaking of rare backs does anyone know who won the llot on Ebay the other night that had all the scarece backs in it. I think there was a 2 or 3 Carolina Brights backs and one Lenox to name a few.

I was watching it in hopes that it went for under $1000 or so since I thought it might be hidden because of the title... it was quite a collection!

my brother was one of the under bidders on that lot. Definitley well worth the $$ for whoever won them. the seller made it sound like there are more to come from the email he sent to our ebay account.
