Didn't Take Long for Mastro Collection Reprints to Appear on Ebay

Final price $1136. Hard to believe so many people are so gullable... especially when the sellers mark these auctions as "private".

This one was so transparent. Makes you wonder when ebay will finally start to intervene the way they do with bogus autographs. This kind of thing is such a trajedy for the hobby...

Ebay loses big dough if they were a responsible company, sooo.


And the buyer is aware this item is counterfeit.

I'm not so sure that the winning bidder knows that. To knowingly pay over $1,100 for a fake is extremely risky, and is insane IMO.

There have been dozens of similar fakes like the "Fans for a Fan" and the Ty Cobb Easel-back displays. And the most they ever seem to go for is $500, give or take a few...

Hopefully this means someone who knew it was a fake put in a bid like $1 million, with no intention to pay? I hope that's the case!
