Posted By: <b>Frank B</b><p><br /> He needs to be reported to EBay immediately because he has a rolex and<br />a computer up also and they have people bidding on the items. Seller keeping<br />those auctions private so no way to warn the bidders. Rolex ends Mon night.<br /><br /> If he has the Plank he should take another photo of it that shows he<br />actually has custody of it.

Posted By: <b>Pennsylvania Ted</b><p>The Plank looks legit (front and back), so we can assume he stole the scan ?<br /><br />Well, what can you suspect from a seller whose handle is "JESSE J"..ames ?

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>That card looks very familiar. Who did he steal that scan from?

Posted By: <b>Doug</b><p>According to the rolex auction it's "for sale locally". Anybody here live in Moses Lake, WA and want to see if he really has it or not? If you check the PSA set registry there is a T206 set called Latzko's Passion that has a PSA 5 Plank in it. Unless the owner of that was his Grandpa something must be up because the pop report only shows one PSA 5 Plank.

Posted By: <b>Tony Andrea</b><p>I emailed the seller and asked for a scan of him holding the card for proof<br />due to his feedback rating of ZERO.<br />He replied by saying.<br /><br />"Dear 3-2-count,<br />i do understand ur concerns and ill get u that scan as soon as my wife gets home and im also going to post it on ebay also<br /><br />- jessej3734<br /><br />Can't wait to see the pictures, can you???<br /><p>Tony

Posted By: <b>Eric B</b><p>The REA Plank scan is just slightly crooked, tilting to the right on top. About 0.3 degrees. I wonder how this seller was able to duplicate that tilt so precisely.

Posted By: <b>Dan Kravitz</b><p>I got him to remove the plank, buy telling him I would buy it for $10,000. He agreed and asked me to send him half. I told him to take another scan with a current newspaper to prove the card was in his possession and I have not heard back from him since. Big scammer! Stay away from any and all of his auctions!!!

Posted By: <b>Jack Richards</b><p>Regarding the word "Resplendent," my son (also a collector) and I created a word last Summer that was intended to describe anything that was indescribably perfect. The word was "racqtigent." (We considered starting it was a silent "g," but decided against it). We hoped that it would catch on with some of the auction catalogs, but so far no luck. Feel free to use it. Thanks, Jack
