The 'God Bless' thing is a dead giveaway. I don't get it - given that the sellers who use this signature are about the lowest heathens on the planet, they must have some misguided notion that they are going to get the 'Christian' bid just because of that line.

I wonder if the buyer is going to send it to PSA for grading? When it comes back that it is a fake, will there be enough time left for him to complain to ebay and get a refund? Just wondering....

I was on the phone with ebay for half an hour tonight -- and I went at them hard. Since then, I see that all of his auctions that he had remaining have been ended though I have no idea if he's been suspended or something else.

When I was a debt collecter, the people that had "have a blessed day" or "god bless" in their voicemails were the worst non-paying, trash talking scum bags I ever dealt with. They were scammers and rip off artists and had no class besides their phony voice message.

Time spent trying to convince eBay rep to remove this degenerate from eBay: 30 mins.

Time spent trying to convince some Net 54 members that fraud is bad for the hobby: 60 minutes.

I was successful on the first endeavor -- he's off eBay now. Moral to the story: sometimes it's hard to determine the idiots in today's world.

Well done, Jeff. I'm sure that your litigating skills came in handy. Chalk one up for the good guys. We'll need to be on the lookout for this jerk registered under a new handle.

Great job!
Hope he doesn't surface with a new ID
Would be nice if he was held accountable and had to face fraud charges

Best part is that because ebay owns paypal they assured me the 5K sale -- which was legit they said -- would be canceled and no funds transferred.
