Of course he knows it's fake.I didn't look at his ebay buys,just looked at the auction link,and read the sellers description.
Thought it was very odd that it looks like it is in a screw down holder,but seller claimed graded by some place I've never heard of.
At any rate,I don't understand why ebay won't hire someone with a vast knowledge of cards (from this board would be a great place for them to find such a person),and have it be "policed".Weed out the scam artists,the fake cards,and throw all of the reprint modern crap into it's own little section.
If you just put T206 baseball cards into ebays search bar,it is loaded with Topps 206 cards and the like.I know there is a way to exclude this stuff,but it shouldn't have to be done by us-should be done by them.

There is some kind or program they have, for industy folks, to report things and have them generally be looked at favorably. I am on their sports card list, I believe. After they did nothing about this one I pretty much wrote that program off. This card has been on ebay for several months and relisted many times, each time with a lower price. I should also clarify that I am only 99% sure it's fake, not 100%....1 in a 100 times the scan is way, way different than what the card really looks like. I think it's safe to assume this card on ebay isn't real though. If it was real it would have been bought several times over.
