But you don't just get a great card, you can also get a great cut auto!

Some of them are people looking for reprints to sell off as authentic cards, IMO. I acquired a bunch of newer licensed reprints a few years back as part of a big collection and sold them all lumped together just trying to get rid of them. I can't tell you how many inquiries I got from people asking if I had more that showed wear, etc.

Why someone would pay $30.00 for a reprint when you could create your own is beyond me. But I do think some of them are people fully realizing they are reprints and selling at flea markets or to others at higher prices trying to pass them off as real.

This is unfortunate, but if people refuse to know what they are buying, then that is their issue.

+1, but it still sucks at the end of the day.
