Default Anyone heard of bkbayareacards ??
I listed a high-end item on Ebay, and got this message shortly after.

Beautiful card! Im a consignment director at Alt and we specialize in high-end assets like this with over 1M bidders. Our last auction exceeded market value on $1.2M in cards with MJ being a top seller. Get a free appraisal and fully guaranteed cash advance. Let me know for more details!
Anyone heard of or used these people??

That clearly violates ebay's terms of service. Pretty foolish move by Alt

Are they using Ebay's platform underneath? Except for mentioning Ebay I don't see the conflict....but I am probably missing it.

What I do see on their website is this -

"The bottom line: The modern trading card industry has created a new type of collector whose less interested in nostalgia and more interested in building a financial portfolio."

That pretty much says it all. All investors in new shiny stuff should flock there. Guys and girls who care about the hobby, not so much.

I read some of the comments from the blowout site link, and I believe I am now at all capitals 'DOUBLE EGADS, NO!' as far as letting someone associated with this company on board here.

It appears they are using an account on eBay to send a PM via eBay to the OP asking him to send his card to them instead of eBay.
