Ebay Scam: Honus Wagner Rp!!!

[showtime]

I've also been blocked from bidding on his auctions. I love when fraudulent sellers do me the favor of keeping me away from them so I don't have to worry about accidently bidding on something of his years from now.

Part of me wants to believe that this is just a mistake. The fact that he didn't wait a while, or try to sell this card under a different ID indicates to me that this had to be a mistake. But the thing about "A new member of our staff listed this card" just doesn't add up. How did he know how much to ask for? Surely this new employee is taking direction from someone, especially on a card that expensive (sort of). Besides, $36 is too much to pay for a reprint IMO. Unless of course......

As has already been pointed out here a few times, this is not an isolated incident with this seller. He asks that we take his full history into account before we judge him and I agree.

I wont be satisfied until the person that hired this new employee is fired!

Oops, I almost forgot.

I'd like to sell that part of you a bridge in Brooklyn.

Brad. Why would you sell reprints online, or off for that matter?.. I can't think of any positive outcome from doing it. Sorry bud, had to say it.

Maybe for those people that like the player/card and can't afford the real thing. I see nothing wrong with selling reprints as long as they are advertised as such. Along the same lines as copies of photos of Ty Cobb, Joe Jackson and the Babe that people sell every day.

Frank - I think most would agree if the card itself said "reprint" on it (perhaps on the back). That way we wouldn't have to worry about the 2nd or 3rd person to own it trying to sell it as authentic (accidentally or otherwise).

You make it seem selling a disclosed reprint would tarnish a legitimate collectors reputation I bought the card as a reprint and sold the card it as a reprint, what's the problem with that?

Not being able to afford the real card is a possibility, but is totally irrelevant in this thread! I hope this clears any misconceptions you may have towards me. If you have any other question regarding my credibility as a seller, please don't hesitate!

Don't be so sensitive there son... It's not about you, I or the majority of the membership. But that novice collector getting the shaft. Simply put, some these gems WILL inevitably bite some poor schmuck in the butt. Nothing personal, just a pet peave since buying a fake Gehrig many years ago. -Steve
