Default Hal Chase T3 Doesn’t Make the Grade

Recently , I was very excited to have won a T3 Hal Chase on an eBay auction that had the Authenticity Guarantee. It had arrived at the Grading center a few days ago. Today I got an email from eBay telling me that the Hal Chase card did not meet their standards and was rejected. A refund was issued that will take 3-5 days.
Having been critical of this process in the past, but never being shy to admit when I was wrong….I was wrong about the eBay Authenticator. If indeed this card is bogus, eBay saved me a large amount of cash. It gives a myriad of reasons why they rejected it, but nothing specific. All I can come up with is it was most likely a fake, although, I’ll never know for sure. Below are the images and the message from eBay. My recent Frank Chance red portrait DID pass inspection and is on its way to me. I’m waiting for news on a T3 of Bobby Wallace I bought on the same night from the same seller ( pictured last) It is in a slab, PSA 1(MK)……….I’ll keep you posted.
This seller had a ton of T3’s that auctioned off that night, mostly raw like my Hal Chase. I’m hoping my Hal was the exception and not the rule.

So back to square one….still need a T3 Hal Chase….hopefully I can find a real one.
