I am only too happy to admit I am no expert on Goudey's. I do not collect them. I did have some I sold a while back - which I acquired in groups from Teletrade and resold individually on Ebay.
These two cards were purchased from chesapeakeauctions.com. I have bid and won many cards from them before, never had any trouble. He never posts scans of backs when listing the weekly items. Only fronts. I bid accordingly. The MINUTE I received emails saying they were reprints - I PULLED the listing. Once I verified they WERE reprints, I immediately requested a refund. The auctioneer claims he has no knowledge of whether a card is authentic or not.
Actually, I don't really care what people think. If you find it hard to believe a person could not look big money cards over carefully - so be it. The truth is that my mother in law died two weeks ago, and I have been travelling between Boston and New York every few days to attend services, memorials, wakes, etc. Of course, you probably don't believe that either. Whatever. These cards were listed hurriedly. I have had alot on my mind, and alot to deal with personally. You find it so hard to believe people make mistakes? Fine, believe what you like.
The truth here is that you guys just don't want me around. You do nothing but throw my feedback right back in my face. I have tried very hard to be diplomatic. But, every time I post a comment, I get slammed.
Clearly, you are above making a mistake. If you think the board is better without my contributions, just say so. I will stay away, if that is truly the concensus.
