Most of this Seller's high dollar raw cards are Fakes. Please be careful.

I'm glad this was posted. I was watching that e121 Cobb last week and thought the "aging" looked suspicious. I was concerned for the buyer that paid $1000+ for it. I'm also not positive that particular front pose can have a "series of 80" back....I know it can have a 120 back for sure, but not sure of the 80 (some e121 experts can probably confirm).

Now that it's up for sale again due to "non-payment" I also assume this guy's plan is to shill bid his own stuff, and then if he actually wins his own item, then resell claiming no payment. I also stumbled upon a Ruth strip card that appeared to be relisted by the same guy claiming no payment.

I'm definitely avoiding his auctions.

That pose is available in the Series of 80, its called Ty Cobb facing front, the other two Cobb cards in the set are the same image called Ty Cobb facing right. The only difference is one bottom has "Manager" spelled out, the other says "Mgr." The "Manager" is more rare.

Is everyone reporting these cards to Ebay?

He intermingles cheaper graded cards to create false security. Probably causes some potential buyers to think the non-graded cards are legitimate as well.

Been reporting since I've noticed several months ago. He's been running that scam of selling low dollar legitimate cards with a few fake high dollars for a while now. Probably doesn't do much better than break even on the cheap stuff, but he's making a killing on the fake cards. Still has 100% feedback, so he must have a loyal following. It seems that another part of his business model is to provide a fast refund once someone catches onto his scam, then they hush up quickly.

I just did. Not sure it'll help, but you'd think if enough people flag the item, then eBay would need to do something.

These are three of the four reprints he sold, the other was a $450 Cobb. Buyer Beware.

8k+ for three fakes, not a bad day in the office. Ebay loves it as long as they get their cut.

Yep, the W520 Ruth for $1700 was disputed with the reason being "I want my refund", do you think that has anything to do with this thread? The buyer did crap his pants and start claiming that the card is at PSA as we speak (after he opened the dispute obviously), but it's a legit strip card. Sorry. It is. The Paige is legit. The Ruth apparently came back N4 and the buyer was automatically refunded (I couldn't because I was already suspended, otherwise I would have refunded him myself). It came out of my PayPal Plus Cash Account. But these kind of assumptions and other garbage is so dangerous, especially when I have a track history of selling A LOT of expensive graded cards. Not just the Tier 3 HOFers or whatever. I've sold multiple PSA A Ruth and Cobb Strip cards. I sold graded t205 and t206 Mathewsons, Cobbs, etc. This was a mistake.

Poster beware; I'm obviously going to take action to protect myself.

Taken from the top of the website, in addition to the terms of service when signing up:

"If you write anything concerning a person or company your full name needs to be in your post or obtainable from it."

Leon, I believe the posts by user "danmckee" are explicitly written about me. There needs to be a way made available to me to seek recourse for the defamation caused. If a single one of those 4 cards isn't a reprint (Ruth Strip Card will absolutely come back legit, Paige buyer had no problems, Cobb came back only because of the guys on this board)...point being they're not all reprints and as a result, I lost revenue, reputation, and potential future earnings. As I said, I will be sending you an email to discuss this further. If you hate me, that's fine. You have an obligation as the moderator of this forum to keep the posts within it legal and not slanderous towards another individual.

PS - if you guys wanted to go after someone, why wouldn't you go after Toppsaholic? I paid the guy 2x more than what he wanted when I made a mistake purchasing an item from him and he still harassed me with private calls. I got over 60 in one day, literally. None of that stuff is looked at as lightly as "danmckee" thinks. As the moderator, you should know that. I would like to have a chat before going to vBulletin and trying to solve this ridiculous problem superhero mckee created for me. He'll pay for it (literally, with money), but it's not a good habit to get into. Keep the posts on the forum legal...

OK, thanks for confirming that this pose can be found as both an 80 or 120 back. I knew someone here would know

I still don't like the look of that Cobb card up for auction (which is bid back up to over $300 right now).

[charlietheexterminator]

I posted about this guy a few months back. He sold a green Cobb for big money, total obvious fake. I mean obvious to me and most on net54. Keep in mind that there are so many new members without a clue. Since I last posted on this seller, he has sold over six Cobb’s, plus loads of Ruth’s, etc. Someone gave him a negative the other day, somehow he had it taken down. He has weekly auctions, sells a few real graded cards, mixed in with the fakes. I clocked him for over 50k, I’ve been watching him. I reported him numerous times, eBay did nothing. The messed up thing is, there might be some net54 members that have purchased from him and have no clue.

[rjackson44]

He laughed at me told me to f off ebay will do nothing sad

[charlietheexterminator]

He just had another negative taken off. That’s two negatives eBay removed this week. The problem is not only this guy, the problem is eBay, it’s bullshit

[danmckee]

If I saved 1 member from this nightmare then the post was well worth it again. Yes he had a negative when I followed up on my positive that the card was fake. I didn't realize it was so easy to get legit negatives removed or does he have a relative working at ebay? I ran into that issue years ago.. Puts you at a real disadvantage. The Cobb he relisted and the Ruth strip card were both won by himself with a zero feedback ID. That is why they are relisted again. Ebay should suspend this character. Thanks everyone for chiming in and helping out. Dan Mckee.
