Not a moderator. Not trying to "sell that."

Just a guy who likes to find stuff on eBay.

Both of ya'll are correct. Generally we don't like it when members out ongoing auctions because it draws more attention to them for the folks that want to bid, which isn't great for the bidders. That being said, anyone paying a grand for either of those cards is making a mistake, imo. With respect to ongoing auctions, I take them on a case by case basis. With this one I really don't think it mattered and probably will help a bit more than hurt. It's not legit, or if it is, that caramel Plank is already at 2x it's value, especially with the top bidders having 0 feedback. I would take odds on those not being legit bids.

I don't think an item with the title Eddie Plank T206 is going to fly under the radar....

If you want to take the .0000000006 chance that either card is real/worth the $$, have at it. Either way, I saw the auction long before Josh posted it and I'm guessing so did many other board members. I had the same general sentiment as Leon and wouldn't go near the auction with a 50 foot pole.

Josh, I have zero problem with your thread (not that my approval really counts for much ).

Well, it "closed" at $3,000 to a bidder who has bid on all of the seller's items, on nobody else's items, and made the bid back on May 24th. So it doesn't look like anyone got hurt with this item.

Anyone who accepts the inevitable 2nd chance offer will be; clearly, he was trolling for legit bidders and will use the second chance offer to try and push the lot at the genuine ceiling bid. Looks like there were legit bidders to $100 and possibly one sap who went all the way to $1000. If so, you can bet he's being offered the lot for $900...

I see nothing wrong with outing a scam seller and auction.

Well I'm glad that the general consensus is that I did nothing wrong. Last thing I would want was to be banned from here. Not sure how that happens but I'm sure it has happened. But as someone who's been on this site everyday since joining I'd sure hate to be banned.

I always appreciate other members calling out fake auctions I see no problem. It would be wrong if you called out an ongoing auction for T206 BL 460 and the back wasn't mentioned in the listing.

This doesn't have anything to do with being banned. You're being melodramatic.
