Scott, it's a hobby for me, not a business.

Definitely not a business.

It's not really a big deal that I can't list for seven days, but the fact that someone at Ebay is targeting those that expose the scammers simply isn't right.

Ebay has twice removed two autograph cards (Fleer-Issued & Topps-Issued) of mine. When I re-listed my Jeter Fleer-Issued autograph, it was not removed and eventually sold.

Then I listed my Topps-Issued Jeter autograph card, it was removed and I was banned from listing for seven days.

Now check out the below Mantle forgery. It was removed twice. Ebay seller SellingMyPast re-listed it a second time and nothing. Up to a year ago, if a seller tried to re-list an item twice after it was removed, they would have been suspended for 30 days.

Also, Ebay seller SellingMyPast is using an old Scoreboard COA in an attempt to sell his Mantle forgery.
