Ebay is tightening up.
If sellers get caught with forgeries too many times or try to repost items that have been taken down, they are history.
I think a few kudos to ebay are in order now.
Though we have all justifiably found fault with them over a long period of time, they are cleaning up their act now.
Lets keep posting the bogus crap. These posts are being watched and I have noticed that the bogus autographs posted here are taken down.

Chris, I am not a collector myself (at least not of baseball stuff), but I really enjoy looking at everyone's collections online and reading about the hobby & artifacts on forums like this.

I stumbled across your YouTube stuff via the Hauls of Shame website and watched a few of your videos. I had no idea a place like Coach's Corner could get away with listing that garbage, and as a lawyer myself I'm surprised the PA AG office hasn't stepped in and shut this place down. What they are doing is usually referred to as "willful blindness" in the law, similar to the situation where one offers you 10 K to deliver a plain brown package and says "don't look inside it." If you get caught and it turns out to be heroin, of course you can't say "gee, I had no idea," because any reasonable person would of course know that package contained something illegal.

CC of course knows everything they sell is a fake, and their website & presentation are laughable: blurry photos, terrible copy in the lot descriptions, etc. They are marketing to scammers who are going to flip the stuff at mall kiosks and such, and maybe an occassional non-collector who stumbles in there and buys a Ruth ball as a gift for a relative or whatever.

Anyway, I like your videos and think it's great you go after them so hard in the most public of forums. I'm also from NJ so maybe others don't understand that that's our "style' here LOL.
