He this time, did away with the SGC slab thing and put it in a screwdown.

Looks like he added more items...a 51 bowman Mays, a 56 mantle
Also, look at the lot...it does have some graded ones, but has some auto's pictures.
You guys take a look and determine what action to take this time.

And his attempt to spell Mantle ("Manle') in the title of his new listing will surely bring him much attention from many knowledgeable collectors.

No returns. Buyer beware.

I got a good chuckle from that, Robert, until I saw with 6 days and 14 hours left, the auction's got 7 bids, sitting at $202.50.

Zero feedback rating. Horribly misspelled player and card manufacturer name. No return. Why would anybody not currently on mind-altering drugs bid on that? I know not everybody that buys cards has the experience that the members of Net 54 have, but come on. Even a ten year old kid could look at this auction, and see red flags all over the place.

I hear ya, Bill. On one hand, some folks are so determined to hit it big and get rich quick so to speak that they are willing to spend big $ to do it even if it is obviously unadvised. On the other hand, it is alarming how uneducated some people who buy cards and memorabilia are. They have $ but do not take the time to do a little homework before spending. Net 54 alone is an excellent resource for collectors. I have learned a great deal from reading posts here. Hopefully, those biding on these auctions will not learn a hard lesson.

Kinda reminds me of when I was playing black jack at a table with a guy who was betting hundreds a hand - playing 2 hands at a time ( I'm sure so he could give them his money that much more quickly) - stand on 15's and 16's against a dealer 10 and NOT double on 10's and 11's against dealer 5's and 6's amongst a myriad of other poor decisions. Must have lost 5-8k in 30 minutes. "A fool and his money are soon parted".

Hmm, he's selling quite a few Mantles. This couldn't be a new Ebay account for Adr.....nah.
