Many times if someone treats you poorly with a transaction on the board then they do it to other people too. I know of one person that just joined and is on the cusp of not being allowed on the BST. He is selling 2 fake T206s on his website, blatant fakes (really bad ones). I told him about them and he said he will just need to send them into be authenticated. I told him he is acting like an idiot and won't be long for our board if he keeps it up. I mean really, does anyone want to deal with someone that is selling really bad fakes and won't accept they are indeed really bad fakes? I am talking a 3 dollar bill here....not a card that could possibly be real. Over and over he defended them.....I know I don't want to deal with someone like that...
As as matter of fact he took 2 down and still has 2 fakes he is selling.....I just gave him a choice....take them off his site, sell them as fakes or leave our board....I won't knowingly subject our members to this kind of crap.

The prices on that guy's website are a complete joke. In many cases, he is asking 500 percent of retail for a RAW card. I probably have 15 Wade Boggs RCs in the same shape as this, that are collectively not worth $142. His same card can be bought on ebay for about $5.
Here's his price!
1983 Topps Wade Boggs RC #498 (Gem-MT)
MSRP: $275.00
Price: $142.49
You Save: $132.51 (48 %)
