Ebay junk / reprints .... round 1,532,184

[scottglevy]

I don't know why stuff like this upsets me so much but it does. I guess that I hate the idea of sellers misleading people into buying garbage.

I especially love the sentence where he says that he can't accept returns because he doesn't know if he'll get the same card back

I'm also baffled by who bids on this trash. I mean this particular card isn't even close!!

If someone thinks this is what a Cobb back looks like and bids a stupid amount of money on it ,they deserve what they get,it takes 10 seconds for even an ignorant card collector to google and see what a T206/Cobb back is supposed to look like.I personally have no problem with reprints or reproductions, if they are presented as such and not sold as possibly being real,or found at an estate sale ect,dishonest people trying to make a fast buck,unfortunately are everywhere,just as are the people who are getting dupped,the best advice I can give to the morons who buy this stuff is know something about what you are buying ,be it a car,refrigerator,a flat screen tv,or a hundred plus dollar Capitol reprint card,Knowledge and common sense is key.

seems like reprints have really flooded ebay lately

Its one thing when the seller of this crap has 0 feedback but when they have 1000s of positive feedback it just makes my head hurt.

I can't understand how this thing is over $100.00 right now????

Do the bidders really think this is real?I don't get it..............

This seller appears to be selling reprints to themselves or to a buddy's account to build feedback. The last legit sale they had was probably 1/24 when they were neg'ed twice for selling reprints. What a crock of beans.

and the interesting thing is the person who is currently the high bidder has about 7 pages/screens worth getting positive feedback from this seller. Looks like they've been purchasing the Cracker Jack reprints for .67 cents. Didn't devout more than 1 minute to this - but it makes my head hurt too.

I also don't mind if it says reprint clearly in the listing.

But what also hurts my head is who is this grandfather collecting a million cards -everything from Ty Cobb back Ty Cobb to TCMA cards and '82 topps?

His "mastery" of the English language upsets me even more (and Im terrible at it too!).
