Beyond that they are listed as reprints, most sellers if they were authentic
would specifically mention that the card is authentic, original or "guaranteed authentic." The descriptions are false and fraudulent. For example, saying "1960 Topps CARL YASTRZEMSKI Rookie Boston Red Sox #148" (Lifted from description) is saying the card is original. That's what that description without qualifier means. In a listing, saying it false twice and correct once won't hold up as defense in small claims court. Which is not to say the bidders shouldn't notice that it's listed as a reprint. On this Clemente card the corners are funky. The cards have a white coating on darker cardstock, so the stock beyond the upper left corner should be darker not brighter. The odd wear on the front of the Palmer showed above stuck me as add too. Another one is, despite the edge wear, I don't think a single one of his cards has a single wrinkle or crease. But these are far from horrible fakes. Many fakes are obviously bad at first glance. I remember those Cincinnati guys trying to forever hawk their "blue eyed" T206 Honus Wagner. The problem is that anyone familiar with the card knew it was a fake at firt glance. ![]() Last edited by drcy; 12-16-2020 at 12:08 AM. |
