ebay seller: artbaronpaintings

Do any of you know the ebay seller "artbaronpaintings"? He has a lot of nice stuff, but a feedback rating of 1. He claims to have been a card dealer for 17 years, but also claims he is "FSA". I believe that's the phony grading company exposed by Bob Lemke as an operation for laundering counterfeits. And he posts scans of his PSA graded cards, but usually all you can see is the card and the label -- no clear signs of the card holder.

There are a lot of red flags here. Is anyone familiar with this seller's 17 year reputation? Thanks.

See the link below "Two Graded Cobb Bat Off". A lot of discussion about this guy.

his last known ebay id was fjp7153. he must be sleeping with joseph ebay's daughter, because ebay doesn't seem concerned that he's ripped off numerous buyers. i recognize at least three cards that he's listed before and not come through with. it's inconceivable to me that so many people are bidding on his auctions, including several board members. remember, i warned you. check out his stellar feedback here: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws1/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=fjp7153

One of the things that really rubbed me the wrong way about this seller is that he claims to have been a card dealer for 17 years and yet I (and noone else it seems)has ever heard of him. You would think that with an inventory like the one he has on Ebay right now, assuming of course that the cards actually exist and are authentic, that somebody would know him. Just my two cents.
