LOL, yes the description gives it away a lot of times. Anytime I see God Bless or any thing religious I automatically assume it is a scammer.

Is the tell that it's a nice looking Cobb that is (1) ungraded, (2) being sold by someone with limited feedback, (3) who doesn't take returns, (4) who lists it as of "unknown" authenticity, and (5) who, in addition to a very expensive baseball card, are selling nothing besides cologne?

methinks the cologne is to disguise the overwhelming stench of the Cobb listing.

As I say, you can identify 50% of eBay fakes by just reading the description. No need to even look at the picks.

The first thing I looked at was the crackling to the surfaces. The second thing I looked for, no one has said anything about yet.
