In the late 1990's I was set up at a very small hotel show on a Sunday. About 3:00 a teenager walked in with a handful of high powered cards for the time, most of which I don't recall. He walked the room and I was the only one with $$ or interested. We spent 30 minutes trying to hammer out a deal, and then he asked "what time is it?" I said 3:30, he said "I have to be home by 4:00!" he took my $2,000 and hit the door. I spent the next hour before the show closed just knowing that his dad was coming thru the door anytime to get his cards back, assuming he had lifted them. But, alas no dad.
Fast forward I only have one of the cards left, which others thought was fake, but I did not. For $200 I did ok. |

I would have to say that 99.99 percent of any seasoned collector would know at the time of the purchase or find that a "steal of a deal" was made .. I know I try..

I bought both of these on eBay around 2017/2018. The Jackie was a PSA 2 and the Mays a PSA 1. My offers of $480 for Mays and $750 for Jackie were both accepted. I paid for them with funds I got from rolling my change and selling DVDs to a used record store.
