I have seen battlefield's handy-work on ebay several times. She photoshops the cards and makes them look like 9s. I have actually followed some of her auctions just to see how much some unsuspecting fool will pay for it. I agree that it is wrong and disgusting what she does. Having have said that, I gotta say, a fool and his money are soon parted. I am sorry, but if you are buying an ungraded card on ebay (of all places) from a seller with horrible feedback you dont get a whole lot of pity from me. And the thing of it is these are often high-dollar cards that probablt aren't being purchased by some Joe Schmo newbie. If you are dropping 6k for a Hank Aaron rookie, you probably arent buying your first baseball card. If your greed blinds you and you think you found some lotto ticket on ebay and are willing to assume the risk, you really dont have a ton of sympathy from me. The reality is, if a card looks like a $30,000 psa 8, and the seller decided not to spend a few bucks on grading it, the odds are it has already been broken out of an authentic or low-grade holder. I am in no way justifying what she does, in fact, i think it is tantamount to theft, but dont buy a Louis Vuitton on Broadway for $30 and go crying that it is a fake.

I wonder how many winners of these 1000 auctions will be defrauded? 50%? :o

She is quite bold but of course Ebay doesnt want to ditch a high volume high revenue seller customer. Here's a fun way to plunge the depths of her audacity. 1. View all negative feedback, 2. sort view to show "200" 3. copy a high value card title like "HANK AARON 1954 TOPPS #128 - RC" 4. hit control F to use the find function and paste the title in 5. See how many times she has sold the same card to try to find a sucker who won't immediately grade it in the return window.
Kind of amazing actually. The highest value cards tend to pop up 4-6 times in the space a year in the negative results. Volume is how the best scamsters hide all their fraud. |

It is fun to see some of the 'shocked' buyer comments who think they bought a legit $1000 or whatever card and believe they are getting a card worth 1000s more.... Negative feedback rating CARD IMAGE WAS ALTERED, IGNORED EMAILS, TOOK 2 WEEKS FOR REFUND, STAY AWAY!!!!!! Buyer: t***y ( 1162Red star icon for feedback score in between 1,000 to 4,999) During past 6 months Feedback conversation Reply by battlefield0516 (Aug-21-16 19:20): You & others spreading these lies can expect a slander lawsuit to be filed soon! SANDY KOUFAX 1955 TOPPS #123 - RC - DODGERS - NRMINT-MINT+ BREATHTAKING!!! (#142067923901) Looking forward to that slander lawsuit.. I guess love is a battlefield. |
The low dollar sales mask the high dollar fraud listings from a percentage perspective.
I can think of one way to stop the problem. If everyone ponies up 2 or 3 bucks and wins the low dollar cards and then leaves a negative feed back his percentage would drop, and he would lose a lot of credibility with Ebay. Sometimes the only way to fight problems is with numbers. I would be in if we want to get a group of people together to help solve the problem. |
