Default Yet another reprint over $200 now

The seller claims they bought it over 20+ years ago hahaha.

The card looks like a playing card has the glossiness to it. It's another HORRIBLE reprint yet some idiots are bidding on it/I'm sure shill bidding as well.

I'm sure if you search for it you can find it. Maybe as bad as the Wagner.

That's believable. 20 years ago is 1995. I have no problem it was created then.

Default Listings

I seen this listing earlier this week. It looks like the same person was in charge of rounding the corners on all of the cards this Seller purchased 20 years ago. You would think that at least one card would have a creased or somewhat sharp corner. The cards are impressive and make you question their authenticity.

Rounded corners with no creases usually doesn't make sense. A few hours left to this one...Interestingly he calls it a reprint in the description. I guess reprints are getting more expensive? (or maybe people want to believe ?? or they didn't read the fine print )

how is it they get the image SO close to the original, but the font (on the name, team at the bottom) is always the dead giveaway? Can't they reprint the "name, team" as an image the same way they do the picture image of the player?

I just looked through his history and feedback. He sold a $50 tobacco card that was psa graded, but didn't think to send in his Babe Ruth rookie or 52 Topps Mantle?

Every time I see a listing like this I'm just amazed at how much people are willing to spend on worthless reprints.

I spent a dollar on a t206 Wagner reprint a couple of months ago and I feel that was a waste. I can't imagine spending a few hundred.

The Ruth has rounded corners and a crease.
Seems legit.

However it is missing the fake looking coffee stains around the edges. That would seal the authenticity.

"I am selling this as a reprint"
Don't the idiots know how to read?
This is not as horrid a scam as the autographs on ebay but this is even more ridiculous, considering the seller states the card is not authentic.
