Dear shiznityz28,

IM VERY INTERESTED IN THIS ITEM.

I suppose I could say yes, and have him pull it from eBay - and then say no. I suppose that would accomplish the goal of getting this scam off eBay.

Nate,

I know the flip looks terrible, do you think this is a reprint in a fake holder? What about checking the flip number in the PSA registry?

brob28 07-14-2011 11:46 AM

LOL! Take a look at the other items he has for sale.

npa589 07-14-2011 11:47 AM

The flip number checks out (if it's 31354146), but this smells bad to me.

Some feedback in the past 12 months:


Neg fb: so I contacted GMA and sent scans. Both cards were fake and GMA did not grade.

Buying pre-war cards from a guy who sells 2010 cards and WWE memorabilia is never a good idea :o

Hahaha - signed WWE memorabilia at that.

...and with all the quality items he sells, he forget to crop the scans of this item

BasherBoy 07-14-2011 12:33 PM

Ebay apparently just has too many auctions, or doesn't care. These scam puppies seem to be all over. Be it autographs, or cards, lack of conscience, and downright thievery abound

Wite3 07-14-2011 12:48 PM

He says the card is on consignment and wants to know how we know it is a fake. Have at him...

Brendan 07-14-2011 03:49 PM

Well, it looks like he took it down. Smart decision on his part. Not worth getting kicked off of eBay for.
