Default A little Fishy

Seller hasn't sold anything in the past 3 months and only 5 items in the past 5 months nothing over $70 and nothing sports card related.

Now they have listed 13,691 expensive items in 2 days with a $1 starting bid.

Also fishy is the fact that all cards have different backgrounds - no consistency in the pictures. I agree that something is very not right here - and lots of serious items

Many of the cards say "PRobstein123" on bottom like they are just using pics from other sellers.

This person has been hacking Ebay accounts for months, even many that are active and have lots of listings, and putting up a huge number of big names, often using the exact same listings over and over again. All the descriptions have info for contacting the person directly for purchase outside of Ebay .

Also listed as being in the UK. If this is real he must have about 95% of the baseball cards in England

1000% fake. This is listed on the eBay site but was also shopped on net54 BST

eBay is such a cesspool.

I randomly clicked on 3 items for sale and cross referenced against SOLD items on Ebay, and every auction was the SOLD item with identical pics and titles.

Now it looks like a lot of "new listings" have vanished when you click on them. Looks like Ebay is shutting them down.

I rarely report items but have reported this seller(hacker) several times. I am sure others are also because they are always gone by the next day.

I saw and reported one of his listings earlier today (it's gone now). Didn't know about the extent of his scam or think to check his other listings.

And here's a card that is fishy :

Sellers like this that ruin eBay.

Ruins it for the honest sellers and the buyers trying to bid/buy.

eBay needs to some how address this
