There is definitely no house at her mailing address. Actually, it basically barely exists. It is either a business building with the dot at the wrong place, or the security gate to a gated community.

Most likely the former.

I bet she does it at her office where she works, so no one shows up at her door.

If you're looking for 304 Jamestown Blvd in Dothan, Alabama, it's the building with Jackson Thornton out front. From your overhead, go NNE. It's the building under the cluster of trees off the road a little bit.

That explains it. She works there. I wonder if the company she works for knows that she is committing fraud out of their business.

Hate to keep adding to this, but at least it may help the newbies.

Was surfing the Bay tonight and got all giddy when I noticed a bunch on very nice 52 Topps cards, but then quickly realized, after looking at the pic/info, it was none other than battleaxe herself!

At least the description for that mentions the paper loss on the front through the letters of Dodgers and tape on the back, aside from not showing the picture of the red back. So it's probably not worth photoshopping a card she's telling you is Fair to Good.

She has a lot of 52's for sale, and although what you say is correct, her previous history speaks for itself.
I'd like to believe she has seen the light and is being more honest/truthful, but I know we will, likely, be reading about these in her negative feedback in the very near future.
This Spahn is also described well but my gut, as likely many others who know her, know this card probably isn't what it looks like when it's in hand.

She's still calling a card with paper loss and tape residue "Beautiful"

Nowadays the only thing worse than seeing something is being sold by this scammer (who really should be in jail) is reading the title of an auction that says READ FIRST........

I'm amazed that she could do this scamming so long. I would think there is a limit for the number of people willing to spend $2k on a 53 Topps Mantle - and I would think that the people willing to put that kind of money up for a baseball card would already know she is a complete scammer.

At some point I would think her prices had to fall because there's no one left that is willing to bid on her stuff - but I guess the baseball card market is deeper than I thought.

Yes, you would think that there is an limited supply of people to fall for her tricks, but I have been a collector for 30 years and I did fall for it this summer on none other than a 1953 Mantle that I suspect she has had to sell about 5 times. The "Breathtaking" card wasn't as breathtaking as the picture, and I returned it. She took the absolute maximum plus a couple of days to reply to the request to return. Then she held on to the money for the absolute maximum time plus another few days. By the time I got my money back another person had been duped for the same card.

My guess she does this to multiple people with high priced cards, hopes they don't return them, and even if they do, she can't lose because she holds the money for over a month and then re-sells again. I feel the real villain in this story is actually eBay, who has to be very aware of her poor business practices, but doesn't want to lose their cut of the transactions where people don't know any better and are for a time, satisfied.
