What's this BS on ebay?

WTF is this...card is supposedly for sale but not on ebay...through a link on their ebay listing.

Guessing ebay will not let this stay up long?

That whole ordeal is odd. All the markings match up...but a zero feedback seller. And a Goldin sale that is now selling for a fraction of what was paid not even a year ago.

Very bad scam attempt.

If you go to the website and copy/paste description…they stuff comes back as sold at previous auction houses. Last one I checked was from Heritage earlier in 2022.

New way to scam and evade ebay auth guarantee.
Shame. Hope that ebay bans their acc and also identifies whatever network is doing it.

Matt is correct. This is a very bad scam attempt.

The scammer wants you to go outside eBay and complete a transaction. At that point, eBay will not provide you with buyer protection of any kind.

Guess someone got the word as whatever it was is no longer listed.

Wow! Thanks, guess eBay was paying attention.

Sadly, this seems to happen all the time on eBay.

There's a 52B Mays in PSA 8 that pops up every few days with a similar pitch to buy it offline through some website, at a price that is maybe 50% of current market. And after a few days, eBay takes it down.

I suspect that whoever is doing this is hacking into accounts to continue to list it, because it's a different seller account every time, and the accounts usually have feedback counts in the thousands, so they're not new accounts.
