In the last few week I alerted an ebayer about a fake T206 Speaker they had for sale. This thing had the whole coffee grinder sit on it apparently. A very bad fake with all the crackles and everthing. I emailed the seller, who was out of his niche, and told him. He emailed and asked how I knew and I told him.
A few days ago I get this message. "Well, the Speaker card sold and you were correct, it didn't pass inspection. Quite honestly, I have never seen a more real looking imitation in all my life. Then again I haven't seen many 1909 cards either. That was just a loner in this massive collection I've gotten myself into. I buy estate buy outs but this buy out was more of a hobbiest's extreme where the entire half section of the lower house was dedicated to sports cards and rightly dubbed Little Cooperstown. To mine and my colleagues estimations there are a million cards here give out take a few. I've gotten in over my head and they're actually taking over. These are mostly high end 90's though 2000's of Finest, EX, SP, Pristine, Chrome, Elite, SPX, Gallery, Brilliants. You name it from that era and it's most likely here. I've always been a collector of sorts but I've got a business to run and what I've got now is more than just a hobby, it's closer to a life-style. Need it gone if you or anyone you know might be interested." so the program definitely has it's pluses. .

I would also add that the program only works if the Ebay seller actually sends the cards through the program. I've acquired at least two cards over the last few months that were labeled to go through the program but were just mailed directly to me. There was no additional documentation with the card only the card. One of the cards was graded and one was raw. I should also add that my level of concern about them being fake was low as the sellers are very trusted in the Ebay world.
