Default Another ebay seller with integrity. Kudos.

It's a minor thing, but whenever I run across misidentified 1962 Topps Green Tints on ebay, I send the seller a message informing them of the error in their listing. As you can imagine, the responses are usually ridiculously laughable. "You have no idea what you're talking about!!" or my favorite, "You're a nosy liar!!!" and on and on. Ha ha. Pathetic! And, of course, the listings are never edited and corrected by these scammers.

Well, today I ran across a listing where PSA (once again) got it wrong, not the ebay seller. So I messaged the guy, informing him that the card was mislabeled and it was not, in fact, a green tint. I offered to spell out the differences between the two versions to verify what I was saying.

A little while later I again ran across his listing and what did I see? Why, he changed the title of his listing to:
1962 topps psa 6 # 146, MISLABLED green tint , new style case, philadelphia phil

This shows a tremendous amount of integrity and he has now gained a future customer in me. I'm sure there are others around these parts who appreciate this type of honesty as much as I do, so I thought I would point it out. And no, I don't know this seller or have any stake in anything he's selling.

His ebay ID is: blkhawk20

The auction is: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1962-topps-p...item4ae9081a16
