One of the rules for sports cards is that if an eBay seller says a card is a reprint or is offering it as a reprint, assume it's a reprint. There are three simple reasons:

1) It's almost always a reprint.

2) Sellers make up stories about reprints being originals, nor originals being reprints.

3) If the seller really doesn't know the difference between an original and reprint 1952T Mickey Mantle or 1955T Sandy Koufax, why the hell are you purchasing a 1952T Mantle or 1955T Koufax from him? You're supposed to be buying these cards from sellers can tell the difference.
