Default Red flags all over.

Red Flag 1:
I'm selling bits and pieces of my grandfathers baseball card collection. This collection ranges from the early 20's to the mid 60's. most of the cards in the collection are in really great shape for as old as they are.

9 out of 10 times when a seller says that he is selling his gradfathers baseball cards that was found in the attic are a scam

Red Flag 2:
And for all you doubters that are going to tell me this card is probably a reprint....... I've taken this card to a very knowledgable card dealer in my area and he told me he's almost 100% sure it's real and he has already made me a very generous cash offer for the card.

He went out of his way to make sure that the buyer doesn't have any doubt that the card is a reprint. When I looked at it that was the first thing I thought. The whole story with it being found in a old 1951 newspaper doesn't help his case either.

Red Flag 3:
a 55 topps mantle card, a 54 bowman ted williams, and a few other less famous players. FEEL FREE TO MESSAGE ME WITH OFFERS AS WELL. I"M OPEN TO SERIOUS OFFERS

There is no such thing as a 1955 Topps Mantle card. The seller could mean a 1955 Bowman Mantle but someone who is selling such a high priced Paige should know the difference. He knows enough about the hobby to know that the Paige is a rare card.

Delivery confirmation and insurance will be included, and card will be packed EXTREMELY carefully!

Did you sign for the card when you got it? This could be used by the seller to claim that the card was delivered to you and after you opened it you claimed the package was empty.

Ebay might side with the seller on this one. Best of luck in your case
