Default e-bay rip-off artists

...you saw that too, huh Scott? THis was my message to the seller:

I notice in your auction you say "It would be a good investment to have this one graded." Then why don't you invest $15 and have it graded? Why?? Because your card is a reprint. I can tell by simply looking at the scan. You know that, or you'd have had it graded yourself so you could claim a higher premium for the card on eBay. You may wish to put an addendum onto your auction to let people know this card is a reprint worth a dollar or two (maybe). Nevertheless, the hypocrisy of suggesting to a potential buyer that "grading it would be a good investment" when you obviously won't do it yourself is, well... ridiculous.

[What a doofus...]
