I know this has been brought up many times, and this will be my last about this topic, but it just kills me that Ebay doesn't care, even when you can provide them solid proof.
This seller sold this reprint 1951 Bowman Mickey Mantle for $5,400 and it obviously didn't work out, so he relisted it again. I reported his first auction to ebay, but they did nothing. I provided the seller proof that it was a reprint during his first auction, but of course, he denied it. As most do, he thinks he's covering himself by saying "I HAVE DONE AS MUCH RESEARCH AS I CAN AND DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS GENUINE OR NOT." This is his current aucton:

There are many experts out here that try to report things like this to Ebay, but they just don't care. I realize Ebay authentication will catch this kind of stuff (I assume), but why not just shut down the auctions immediately.
Does anyone have a direct email to Ebay, so I can forward them the pics, so maybe they will shut it down?
Ok, I'm out! Thanks!
