Posted By: <b>Doug</b><p>That may be the first time I've actually seen someone steal a picture that has someone else's name blatently written across it...first time for everything I guess.

Posted By: <b>dennis</b><p>sent him a question. why does the scan have all martys stuff on it. if you are going to steal a scan make sure the sellers name is not on it....i wonder if he will now crop the image?

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I sent him a message yesterday, before this thread. Out of a 3-4 line paragraph he probably spelled half the words correctly. Many scammers aren't too bright....He did point out his great feedback of over 93% though...

Posted By: <b>David Smith</b><p>The seller has closed the auction because of an error in the listing. Yes, I guess when you try and sell something you don't own and can not deliver when the "buyer" pays for it, that IS an error.<br /><br />David

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>I'm embarrassed that I actually "marked" this auction by placing a $2 bid. Hopefully, I would have looked more closely at the scan before placing a serious bid.

Posted By: <b>Marty</b><p>Thank you all for taking care of this. I was in Las Vegas for a few days and I did not look at the internet even once.<br /><br />PS. Paul, thank you for the bid.

It was a small tournement.<br /><br />When I got back, I had four notices letting me know about the scan plus two threads here. My wife was impressed that there were that many people who care.

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>I used to own that wonderful Gehrig card.<br /><br />I hope someone pays Marty full freight for that beauty.<br /><br />(And NO, I don't mean $235 like it was on EBay!)<br /><br /><img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14>
