Fake Lajoie slabbed by PSA, Ebay seller: vintage_card_shop
https://www.ebay.com/itm/12671517166...wAAOSw6~9nBzQJ
I politely informed this Ebay seller that his card was not authentic, explained why, and suggested that he try and get some relief from PSA.
His response “HAHA".
I followed with what I believe to be a pretty straightforward explanation: "Look, I was only trying to help. There's another Lajoie on ebay right now-- compare them and you'll see what I mean. Frankly, compare your Lajoie to any m101-4 or m101-5, even the others you have for sale, and you will see that there is no gap between the photo and the frame-- the frameline goes right up against the photo. What you have is a Larry Fritsch reprint first sold 30+years ago and still available. Your card was purposely scuffed and otherwise made to look like it came from 1916. It did not.
I am not trying to get you to take less or scam you in any way-- frankly, I consider the card worthless. If you want to keep it up on ebay without noting that it is not genuine--so be it. Believe me, collectors from this set will take note."
His response “you=joke. BLOCKED Waist of my time”
I wanted to alert any members here to stay away from at least this card, and I would not object if others contacted him about it as well if you have time to waist  .
