It's all pretty ironic as the original impetus for third party grading, supposedly, was the rampant fraud in the 80s and early 90s.

Aren't we nearing an inevitable end to this hobby as we know it.
With 3d printers as they are, how long before people will be able to replicate any and every thing? Who can't see a future in 25 years where a person can duplicate a 52 mantle that would have no physical differences whether it was real or 3d printed?

I am sure the exact same sentiment was uttered by someone somewhere on March 3, 1956 . . .1966 . . . 1976 . . . 1986 . . . 1996 . . . and 2006.

As the owner of Cardregistry, I would like to take this opportunity to state that Mr. Robert Evans, the individual who posted this thread regarding “fake cards sold by Cardregistry” has very limited credibility on this issue. We sold him a 1967 Topps Mickey Mantle Card that we consigned for a consignor which turned out to be fraudulent.
Upon being informed by Mr. Evans that he sent the card to PSA to confirm its authenticity, we requested that he give us a little time to investigate the matter, and we would get back to him shortly. We were kind enough to provide him with our private number, and he continuously harassed us to receive a refund for approximately three days even before a claim was escalated to Paypal, and we have evidence to support this statement. At the time he related this to us, we had not yet received any letter from him from PSA, and we weren’t going to take his word for it. Why would we? What if he was the person who tampered with the card? We clearly needed the letter in our possession, and we told him that he would receive a refund upon receipt of it and the Card. Rather than understanding the issue at hand, he posted this thread regarding Cardregistry. We needed to do more research and learn PayPal’s policies regarding an incident of this nature, and it wasn’t until after this conversation that we received the Notification Letter from PSA (Professional Sports Authenticators) The letter stated, " the case, which is sonically sealed with a tamper-evident feature at our facility, has been broken along the edges of the case for the purpose of switching the card inside the holder. The perpetrator has attempted to reveal the holder back together, but the sonic weld is clearly violated," You can view the entire letter on this thread. Bob Evans prematurely wrote this thread and stated facts that he knows very little about, such as the amount figure he claims has been sold as well as calling us "beautiful idiots."* The reason we requested the card be returned to us was to help aid in our investigation of this sale with PayPal and other parties accordingly. Cardregistry has been a retailer of Sports Cards for over 4 years now, and we have provided our clients with great quality and outstanding service, so to see this thread is very disturbing as well as unfortunate. The few people who purchased a card from this Consignor have been notified, and I assure you that all cards in our inventory are authentic, and we have a large quite impressive collection. In fact, we have received a letter from PSA’s Counsel that states we had “no direct involvement in the manipulation of the cards at issue or in intentionally or knowingly selling Fraudulent cards. Rather, it presently appears that Cardregistry was victimized by its consignor and others acting in concert with” the Consignor. It’s very unfortunate that Mr. Evans prematurely jumped to conclusions that could seriously hurt a business, and we will pursue every legal action for Defamation of Character and any damages incurred by the derogatory and false statements of any party. We apologize to all our clients for any inconvenience that this isolated incident which could have been solved privately may have caused, If anyone has any questions, please feel free to reach out. CARDREGISTRY, Inc. welcomes any inquiries, or concerns in regards to this matter, or any of our business practices, and we look forward to continue to be a Top Rated Ebay seller with zero negative feedback as well as a reputable retailer of Authentic Sports Cards. |

It seems clear and I think Bob would agree that you did not intentionally sell bad cards, but is it true that you sold them without having them in hand? More importantly, what can you tell us about your consignor?

Anthony,
Thank you for responding to this thread. Are you the same person with the ebay id cardregistry who made an offer on a card in my store last year? Apparently I didn't counter soon enough and received this message: Dear bbcemporium, hey big shot you want me to teach you how to counter? - cardregistry Upon receiving this message, I promptly denied the offer only to receive this: Dear bbcemporium, Wow you really are a big shot. I wish I was as cool and tuff as you. - cardregistry I have to admit I was quite taken back by these messages, but given you are a reputable retailer of sportscards with great customer service, I'm assuming it is somebody else operating on Ebay with the id cardregistry? |

interesting side notes before i address:
ebay handle: cardregistry. you neither sold me a "card", nor could i register it. just had to point that out. n54 handle: cardjunkie. take off the "ie" and it's more than appropriate. junk is all you sold me. addressing your post: pure comedy! first off: is your name Anthony Muia or is it William Ikhilov, but prefers Vadim? you figure out which name you prefer and let us know. but let's dive right in.... Quote:
credibility issue solved. Quote:
I did. I gave you 2 days to issue a refund. You did nothing. gave me your private number? AH-NO! I got that from my paypal invoice. in fact I contacted your husband back in janurary about concerns. his reply was "im hoping this is an isolated event and (listen to this one!) hoping for the best" but get this, he still wired the guy the money after the initial eyebrow was raised. Quote:
you have the letter and you still didn't issue a refund. in fact, I went thru paypal and amex to get my money back. proof to back this up should you refute any further. Quote:
I even told you to notify everyone else you sold cards to and your husband stated "shut the f up, quit making me paranoid". again, proof is in text messages and I will post should you decide to refute. Quote:
but again, where was the refund you promised once you had proof? that's right, you didn't refund. proof to post should you refute. Quote:
the letter that is addressed to me, same letter in post 1 and the one I provided you. Quote:
in fact, I told your husband back in janurary that something wasn't right. didn't post a word about it. as for beautiful idiots? 100%! your post is proving it, plus you guys consigned cards you didn't even have. Quote:
(side note: I asked for your husbands name several times over for the fedex label. he repeatedly would not provide it. however, I was able to get it thru my own sleuth skills) Quote:
you were told of a potential problem in janurary you did nothing about it. turns out you never even had the cards to begin with. you still sent the guy $150K after you were warned. you were advised by me to tell your other clients you did nothing of the sort. replied w/ "hoping for the best" you were provided proof that the card was fake. you were given 2 days to make it right. you did not refund me. you psycho dialed me from blocked numbers repeatedly. you consigned cards, expensive fn cards, w/o them in hand. you have the audacity to call me and ask me to remove the thread.* (I said "certainly not") you come on here and spit nothing but lies and fabrications. and on top of all of this, you decide to threaten me w legal action? "i wish a mofo WOULD be in my seat" again, I have all the proof in the world. most of which is already provided. should you wish to be embarrassed further, i can post all of your husbands texts... i don't want to, but i will... nowhere in this thread, did i say you were knowingly involved. remember: beautiful idiot, not scammer. best part is that I knew early in on the scam you were involved in simply from boards like this. you weren't the first to fall for this. you're just currently the last. the second your husband stated he never had the cards, I knew instantly. I even sent him a text (and I apologize ahead of time, leon) telling him to "wake the f@ck up, you are in the midst of a 6 figure scam". he was too damn hardheaded to listen. but because I knew and already had my money credited, I wasn't mad at all. I was generally trying to help you guys out in the beginning, but you guys wouldn't listen and in fact became very argumentative, so....it actually turned into fun for me. watching you continually crash and burn like this. it's like telling a 40 year old man (not a toddler) to not touch that stove because it's hot. but boy did you guys touch it alright. you got burned. bad. all while being advised not to. again, I was only trying to help you guys from day one. you have no one to blame but yourself. taking on consigned cards w/o having them in hand! seriously? so yes, i did say you guys were beautiful idiots. facts concur this statement, but thanks for proving it yourself. here's some more advice and i suggest you take it this time: read your husband's text messages dating back to janurary 12th. i would be more than happy to post them if he deleted them. best of luck and here's to "hoping for the best" for your future endeavors! sincerely, Bob Evans * i did post the consignors name that your husband gave me, however you called me and asked me to remove it as not to hinder an ongoing investigation and i promptly did so. not only that, another member (irv) quoted this and i even sent him a request asking him to delete it. posts #92, 93. proof to post should you re...yada, yada, yada.

sorry. after re-reading the repeated lies here, I've decided to embarrass you a lil more.
i replied above to Anthony's wife as that's who's been pyscho dialing me. "Anthony" is his name that he uses for his ebay account, bbcemporium. I am not convinced that is his real name, yet. But that certainly is his tone. however, the tone of this post is certainly that of his wife's and is why i replied responding to her. furthermore: Quote:
*actually i only gave them 2 days, but "harassed" is by far a stretch. Quote:
I even asked you to read the thread in it's entirety before you make a post. you'll see that several members already knew about the Mexican connection. but sure, keep lying and say this one card outta the $150K you sold was an "isolated incident". There are some smart fellows around here. Don't think they are buying that load of crap for a split second. no proof needed. common sense should you refute. ha.

update and apology.
I completely misstated the $150K figure. in reviewing the text messages dated feb 26th, it appears the figure was only $125K-$150K. so technically it might only be $125K. edit: so sue me. ; ) Last edited by begsu1013; 03-10-2016 at 08:07 AM. |

I agree 100%! I'm also amazed how sellers fail to take full responsibility for themselves. Look, if the card was bad or tampered with, and it wasn't the sellers (as it was being consigned sight unseen), seller still takes on full responsibility (as I have always said auction houses should do). Seller should immediately refund the buyers money, then the seller battles it out wit the owner of the card. Buyer shouldn't have to wait for seller to recover their money first. It also amazes me how defensive sellers get in situations like this, where they should be more sympathetic and understanding towards the buyer.

If they want to send me their real name and real phone number via email, and I verify it, I will be glad to reinstate them. Otherwise, pure anonymity will not be allowed. And I am not taking sides, from my perusing this it looks like they probably got scammed too. However, there is no reason, imo, to have to be anonymous. Maybe they don't know how to be up front about stuff and they can learn from this?

It seems like when your integrity is called into question and honest response would be the way to go. If you were really an innocent victim just admit what happened and move on. I certainly won't be buying from you after reading this without a better explanation and I am sure I'm not the only Net54 member who feels the same way.

i'm done w/ cardregistry.
they've proved their level of competence in a mere two posts. moving on. if joe o should happen to peruse this thread, here's a couple of things to possibly think about: there are 2 levels of fees: $7 and $35. what are the security measures in place on cards sent in solely for "reholders"? when someone sends a card in for a reholder, does that guarantee authenticity as well? naturally they send them in to transfer the cards from older style to the newer style... but they also send them in for holders that have been dropped or cracked. so i'm sure the reholdering guys have seen holders in every condition, but are they qualified in detecting cards that doctored/altered as well? you can see where I am going w/ this.... just want to make sure there isn't a back door security breach that could/would need to be addressed. while i understand the letter you sent out is probably preformatted and the particulars simply filled in, i did not see any compromised sonic welds or case obstructions. to put it bluntly: those holders were damn good! not expecting a reply in any manner.
