New Thief on e-bay - fake 1933 Ruth

Posted By: runscott

Crooks like this illustrate the danger of letting forgers sell their cards as "old reprints". I found the transaction where he bought the fake Ruth he's selling, but not for the T206 Cobb.

1933 Ruth being sold: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1036668267

original Ruth purchase: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1006849146

I sent the following to him/her:

You bought this as a reprint from Audrey - either end this listing immediately or you will be reported to ebay for fraud.


Thanks,
Scott

Don't waste your time with these guys.
I think everyone here has sent emails in the past with the same result.

Have to say though if you purchase such a card wouldn't you ask for a better scan..lol...and it's not even a good "Old Reprint". I personal didn't want it when i saw the nice snow white boarders. But it's post's like this that you find those things out....

Nice Spot.

I need to forget about these kind of people. I heard back from e-bay - they said they probably won't do anything. I copied the seller on my response to e-bay, he then made the usual threats,etc.,etc..It was a total waste of energy on my part. Time for some leftover turkey.
