Between the multiple gloves, photo, and record there was atleast five autos and the guy didn't even hesitate for a second when they said 700.00 he just took the money and ran fake fake and fake.

Those Rose cards were authentic. Shows you how little these guys know about some things as was the case with the Gehrig jersey. There was a crash and the crash will forever last as late 1980's and 1990's cards are essentially worthless. A few months ago on eBay, I saw a guy buy (500) 1987 Topps Roger Clemens cards on eBay for one penny and I saw a collection of
(10) 1987 Topps sets sell for $14. Larry |

I rember when I was a kid in 89 and I went to the local hoppy shop to buy a set of 89 Topps for $30. The delar told me I should by another one so I could put one in the closet to make money and have the other to look at. Well, that did not work out very well. There use to be four or five card shopps around me here in Detroit and the last one on Woodward just closed a few months ago. Looks like it online or bust!

Larry, I have to disagree with you. Even looking through the TV screen it was apparent that the Rose cards were fake. I knew it the minute the guy laid them on the counter.

Funny, I was watching DEA on Spike TV today. They not only found major drugs but some 80's and 90's Topps, which he said were old school.

Glad it has finally been confirmed by the greatest source possible, some fat bald guys in a pawn shop in NV, that the baseball card crash is real.

Hi Jim,
Over the years I have been burned by some fakes so I am very cautious when purchasing cards. Some of the fakes are very difficult to detect, but these weren't good fakes. They were like some of the counterfeit cards on ebay - one quick glance and you know they aren't any good. My wife and I were watching that episode of pawn stars and when they showed the first close up of the cards I turned to my wife and said "those are fakes". On the latest episode where someone brought in some Ali autographs I was completely in the dark. I don't know anything about them so I wouldn't have been able to identify the good ones from the bad ones. I am sure that other people on this board could spot them right away. Rick

haha, i was actually watching that same episode yesterday. There was a bunch of 1991 Upper Deck in sheets as well and the DEA agent said something to the effect of " Hes selling drugs and might not even know hes sitting on a fortune of old Baseball cards". I got a good laugh out of that. BTW hi guys, my name is Bilko from Calgary. Been reading the boards for years and was a member on the old board, just recently signed up on the "new board" though. Ill probably mainly be a lurker ![]() |

They did look pretty fake right away. The images were really fuzzy and it didn't really look like the right card stock.
