Need some help on a purchase please.

As the previous posts state, the Fro Joy and George Ruth Candy company cards are so reprinted and faked that I wouldnt buy one that hasnt already been graded by a major grader. I think we have all been tempted by these at one point or another. I know I have. If they were real would this guy be selling them this cheap? Like the old saying goes, "if it sounds too good to be true...."

I would stay away.

If anyone buys any Fro-Joys or 1928 Babe Ruth Candy cards that are raw they certainly must be very careful. I have bought at least a few dozen of them raw and have only had 2-3 turn out to be fake. That being said I am very wary of buying them. You can do it, but you really better have a lot of experience with them (I have quite a bit and it' still hard for me to tell.) I would guess that at least 80%-90% of them that we see being sold are fake.
