He is trying to make a point, but has failed. Sweetguy and the other reprint-selling scammers are not experts at vintage cards and cannot tell the difference between a scan of a fake or a scan of a real card, and they of course rely on the hope that their potential buyers are the same, and many are.

Their demented argument is that they should be left alone to sell fakes on ebay because in their opinions no one can judge whether or not a card is fake based just on a scan...so it's up to the auction winners to figure out on their own that the card's a fake, and we have no business meddling in their scam. The part of this that eludes them is that they are thieves and that that isn't acceptable behavior, especially to those of us who have an interest in keeping our hobby safe and clean. They also seem to be incapable of accepting the fact that there are experts in this hobby who CAN tell fakes from scans.

But why do the scammers keep posting and accusing us of breaking ebay rules and slander? Because they think we will give up. Why do they think so? Easy, some board members are telling us, right here on this board, to give up!
