Need a reality check

The N172 Old Judge Art Whitney with the dog. PSA 2.

[Fred]

That card sold twice in a short period of time by the same seller.

First auction ended 28JAN18 ($750 was winning bid).

Same guy won it the second time around for $910. The guy is obviously full of shit. Why would he allow the same a-hole to bid on it if he couldn't pay for it the first time. Looks like you didn't bid on it the first time. Too bad, you probably could have won it for < $900 or at least drove his shill bidder up.

He's got it up for $1K (or best offer).

UGH, Leon is this the kind of thing you can bring to ebay's attention? Obvious shilling etc...

The problem with eBay is they won't do anything about this. They're looking at the bottom line, and this is bring them in more money in fees collected. So why oust shillers. It really sucks as buyers/sellers.

It's though when you list a card over and over on BIN, and it doesn't sell then you list it in action and it sells for very little. People are afraid auctions are going to be shilled, so they're reluctant to bid on them.

even sadder yet...in addition to all the icky stuff that this guy has tried to pull off, these two transactions will show up on VCP and will artificially inflate the "market price" of this card to the next unsuspecting buyer.

As a policy, I reject all second chance offers. 99% are a result of shilling gone wrong. SCOs are eBay's clever way to allow shillers to try to get away with one, then have an out if it goes south.

What a scammer. Thanks.

If he’s lying about his father dying of cancer a few months ago .....damm, that would be pretty depressing.

[Fred]

He's only sold one thing in the past 6 months. Guess who was under bidder on that auction? Same butt head who was the high bidder on the Whitney with dog OJ. That bidder has only bid on that seller's auctions.

Sounds like a real winner....

Just pass on this guy.

Like i have said many times it doesnt matter why they are selling the card...if needed money so bad he woud of just sold it for 700 and be done with it instead of taking all this time back and forth while his father is lacking his medication...

Steve - If you'd like, I can send you a one-of-one picture of me and MY dog.

...and I'll charge you a lot less than $900.


- would send it in bubble wrap and all...

[Snapolit1]

Have my own dog. But thanks.
