Currently at $840. At this point the seller technically isn't doing anything wrong (except calling the card beautiful).

WOW, this is incredibly lucrative.

Thanks, PSA!

ebay rules state that a t206 wagner cannot be sold on its site unless it has been authenticated by one of the big graders, so technically he is not following the rules.

here is their rule

this auction should be reported and delisted.

he says that ebay requires him to relist it as a reprint, but he is not really listing it as a reprint in the title or the description, he just says psa requires him to. its still under the baseball card group.


it should be in the title Honus wagner t206 REPRINT.

Here's the link to the rule; under guidelines, click trading cards:
http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/autographs.html

The seller did not comply with this part:
"Having trading cards graded by a grading company helps buyers know the value of the card you're listing. When listing any of the below trading cards, the following information must be stated word for word in the listing and in the same font size as the rest of the description:
The seller has taken the appropriate steps to have this trading card professionally graded by a reputable grading company."


From eBay's perspective, I don't know if they consider this card "graded" since documentation is provided:
You can list the following trading cards only if they've been professionally graded by a reputable grading company.

It is graded.

Graded "? AUTHTCT" by PSA.

Not a reprint because it's authenticity is questionable so it may or may not be real.
