I am saying the cards in the holders now are not the ones that left PSA in those slabs. The Mantle is a reprint or counterfeit card.

The Clemente does not even have the right size PSA holder for that year card.

The bar code and PSA label could be real, but are meaningless when the slab has been cracked and a different card inserted.

People have been cracking open PSA holders and replacing the card inside with a lower grade/counterfeit/reprint cards since PSA started grading cards.
The reason is to scam people out of $. There are several versions of this scam.

Yes I see the POS relisted the Mantle also. I see I am on his blocked list now because I tried to message him about it.

Reported both cards to eBay, probably won't help but can't hurt.

I will turn it in, too. Might even contact the dude...

I reported it. I also messaged him and told him to stop shaming himself and pull that reprint off. I am so sick of these scammers! In the last few months, I can't remember how many such frauds have been exposed on here. It isn't any of my business, but I just have my bucket full! Whatever happened to integrity?!
