Excellent point guys. Why do you think people still buy these cards, when the seller is essentially saying "These are likely to be reprints."? Do you think the buyers are thinking that they will hit it big? After all, if they were originals, why wouldn't the seller get them authenticated with PSA or SGC and sell them for what they would cost if they were authentic?
Here is an example. Who buys these cards???
