There appear to be a few people here who have issueS with Mr. Probstein. There are also those who believe that he is a good guy. After this listing I have serious issues with any perceived integrity he may have. The original listing on fleabay:

My message to him via ebay messaging and his reply. Notice the dates versus the ending date of the auction.

Dear probstein123,

Pretty sure you got this one misidentified. This is Bill Russell the baseball player. Go to baseball autographs and type Bill Russell in the search and you will see quite a few like this.

Dear sellstff,
u are correct



Five days to amend or correct the listing, but NOOOOOO!!!. How pissed the high bidder is going to be when he realizes that he paid this much for a 'certified' signature of a common baseball player.

He offers a return policy for a reason. Mistakes happen.

Mistakes happen, sure, but in 5 days he couldn't correct it?? I wonder if you'd make this comment if it happened to you.

Was this a mistake too? I think it is quite misleading to represent a game issued bat as game used.
