This Mickey Mantle rookie card recently sold for $2,500 here

Here is the SAME picture (most likely stolen), sold for $1,500 here

I usually sympathize with the victims of scams, but with this one, I'm having trouble mustering up any. Seller has 2 feedbacks and doesn't even provide a scan of the entire slabbed card. Come on now

But, oh, I forgot to mention, the extensive description of the card probably sucked the buyer in.

You would think with the history of the top two bidders, that they would have a little more common sense. I guess the old saying is true, there is a sucker born every minute.

That's a great way to see it. Hey, why have cops even? Everyone should just handle their own business. The old west all over again... sweet. (end sarcasm)
