Kevin,

Be careful! Especially when spending that kind of money.

I saw that card when it was first listed; if you would have blown that card up on your computer screen, it appears that somebody took a red type felt tip pen and messed with it because there is still white on the cap that was missed, along with the name area enlarged also showed possible messing with.

I am not saying the seller did this but you must be careful of "tweeners" on eBay. It's best to ask seller for a scan.

I also looked at this. Looks like marker. HA is also rubbed or scratched off.

Agreed. This card is colored in with a pen of some sort.

[t206hound]

Agreed. This card has been recolored.

It shouldn't be hard to stop the deal. Just send him a link to this thread. Also, don't feel bad. It was a deceiving listing. Not as described. I'm sure we have all been prey to this kind of stuff. dave.

i figured the same thing but didn't want to conclusively draw that conclusion yet.

its only a hundred bucks. i will deal with it when i get it and put it under the loupe.

Hey guys, this is my card that sold last night. I picked it up a few weeks ago from a friend that received it as part of a massive consignment of t206s that were 'sealed' for 20+ years. I had a hobby friend with me as we went through the cards and found this one. Like many of you, I thought it was a felt tip pen that marked up the hat. Then I noticed that the same red ink is on the uniform and there is event blue ink on the uniform as well. The uniform marks don't look anything like felt tip pen. We came to the conclusion as a group that it was in fact a print error. That said, we didn't take it under magnification but I understand the ebay buyer will. If upon closer examination, it's identified as not a print error then I will 100% refund.

Sounds fair to me.
