and it was a ty cobb red background, my first initial bid of $9.99 stuck and i was a little leary putting that in. i was new to vintage cards but for the most part i wanted to see a decent looking reprint so i can compare them to the real deal, it paid off because now i dont buy anything ungraded unless the dealer is someone i've bought from or someone here vouches for them.

also, as long as you dont put a big picture of the cards it's harder to see that its fake, and it seems like the legit guys put larger or better scans, and actually take the card out of the penny sleeve to see it's clarity...and when you ask for a larger scan, scammers usually reply with "my scanner broke right after i scanned these cards"

pete-

and i did relist that fake cobb, described it as a reprint, thicker stock, etc....and still got $35 for it...and if this guy sell 25-30 cards for $10, it must be worth it.
