Once, many years ago, I bought a group of cards from a guy on eBay that he was trying to pass off as authentic. Typical T206 reprints - bad O'Hara, bad Plank, bad Cobb Bat Off, that sort of stuff. It was back in the day when you could see who the bidders were, and there were a bunch of people bidding who were newbies. So I decided to win it, to keep it out of their hands.
In the pile of cards I got was a true blue Cy Young Portrait, along with a handful of commons. Wasn't in the scans! Total gift. I think the lot cost me $50. Al |

It happened to me once. I purchased this card in an Ebay auction several years ago. It was listed in the pre-1942 category as a reprint. Eventually, I ended up trading it for something else. As a side note, this card (not this exact card) seems to have a way of calling me back to it. I've owned a few of them, sold them & end up buying another. I guess I really like this particular card.

Several times I have purchased premiums that were listed as reprints by the sellers because they had facsimile autographs rather than real ones. Of course, this was part of the design element of the premiums, and each time they were the real deal items.
