Fake Cobb Ghost on Ebay
 
If you are bidding on this one you should stop, it is a fake:

The T206 printing process could not produce that effect.

Same seller listed this card a month ago with a starting bid of $4,000 dollars ---no sale. Was discussed back then and with bidding at $300 dollars obviously needs to be talked about again.

Thanks David, I think I was part of that thread but for some reason I couldn't find it to include here. Please post a link if you can locate it. Thanks!

And it looks like the seller is shilling it up.

Not finding the previous discussion of the card. Anyone have a link?

TIA

It appears that the seller won his own card.

Bid pattern doesn't look very kosher. How do you know it's the seller?

I don't know for sure. I am looking at what you are and making the same assessment you are.

The winning bidder has a zero feedback history, with an interest in jewelry and has never won a single item, except this card. The chances that the buyer has an interest in a specialty T206 item like this is next to impossible.

I think the conclusion is pretty reasonable.

I agree. I was just askin'.. :)
