eBay removes suspicious grading company from site
 
Posted By: <b>kev&nbsp; </b><p><BR>Following a recent report in Sports Collector's Digest, eBay has banned the sale of known and suspected counterfeit cards slabbed by Foremost Grading Authority, Inc (FGA). Many of these cards were from sets made between the 1920s and 1952. However, one seller was trying to move fake cards from the 1963 Bazooka set. Canadian Sports Collector has recently heard of the possible existence of a fake Wayne Gretzky rookie card graded by FGA. We will provide more information <BR>

I can get you a copy for about $95 if you'd like - it should have your entire collection in it."<BR><BR>Then, as you slowly lose self-control..."I can give you the name and address of the bastard that ripped you off as well, if you'd like."<br><br>
