Probstein Ebay Rollout

[Yoda]

Over the last day or so, Probstein has unleashed a hurricane of high value cards on an unsuspecting Ebay following, including '14 Cracker Jacks of Cobb and Jackson. No auctions that I can see only BIN's at steep prices. Still, if you got an early tax refund, and the better half doesn't know about it yet, it can't hurt to look. Right?

I had seen the same thing last week, and some turned to auctions after. Whole lotta eyeballs/shilling accounts to keep up the watch count

At this point my appetite for high value cards is at an all time low. I really question whether I can trust anything in this hobby. It's not a new revelation, but such a bummer.

Don't fret, go after the low grade beauties!

I saw them yesterday but just looked again today and they all seem to be gone.

I feel your pain, my friend. I certainly have changed my buying in response to the infested waters.

I concur.

I made an offer on one of his BINS and promptly received a very good counter offer, which I accepted.

I have some of his BIN's saved in my watch list, but they are not showing up in his store because he is gone through the 18th. The auctions are still running, and I'm guessing that his BIN's will be back up tomorrow.

Not that I am a high value card purchaser, I'm far from it, but this sure has opened my eyes significantly.

Probstein is dead to me.

I see a lot of nice soaked cards.

I feel the same way.

With serious accusations leveled against a major, major eBay player with text messages offered as back up to the claims. It's worth a read if you have the time, though there is way too much noise with a few people calling each other idiots that you'll tune out after awhile. Also, I'd be remiss not to mention the birth of the term "$20 collector," which has spun off into its own thread.
