T206's needed, buy or trade for these T205s
 

Hello,

I've been away for some time out of necessity and am returning to try and finish off some old ambitions.
One is to complete a set my father started many years ago, lost to theft, and started up again by my Sister and I a few years ago.
I am down to the following list and would prefer to trade but will buy as well. I am posting some T205s I have for trade, don't have much other pre war. They are crease free and I would believe would grade pretty well. If you have anything from my list I would appreciate any help.
Thanks, Bob

those are FAKE T205's. Not a chance they are real.

Ouch
 

ouch

Andrew,

I concur with no hesitation.

Here are what some real ones look like. Notice the color difference in the border.

Okay
 

Okay, forget trading the T205s, am interested in purchasing.

Great way to come back to the board offering fake t205's for trade. Come on.

People aren't allowed to make mistakes? I didn't see the original scan, but I don't think he was doing anything intentional. If you wanted to pass of fake cards, this would be the last place anyone would try.

One of the reasons I was "away" was personal financial stuff. Another was the often caustic and difficult level of communication that this forum can be. We are all not collecting crumudgeons and believe that it is better to collect than to abuse.
I apparently made an error. I do not collect T205's and haven't ever really studied them. The 4 that I have have been in a box for a very long time and were given to me by a friend, He may or may not have known if they were real or not. He's dead so I can't ask him. Once it was pointed out to me that they were not real I pulled them off immediately.
Anyway, I apologize if I offended anyone and you needn't worry about me doing that again.

Hi Bob,
E-mail sent re a duplicate Thebo in PSA 3.5, piedmont back, that I could sell for $150 (includes shipping and PayPal fees).
