I thought you would love the starting price and ESPECIALLY the Buy It Now price!!! Hilarious.

I know this subject has been beat to death but I thought for the newbies this would be another thing to watch out for.

This "card" and the three others the same seller has listed on eBay have been cut out of magazines and, to me, are worthless. The VSA and SMA grading companies he has listed are bogus. Some guy has bought magazines and cut the pages out. He then has sealed them in a plastic holder, assigned a grade and serial number and put them on a website. It is all an in-house operation.

He buys the magazines. He cuts out the pictures. He grades and encapsulates the paper. He assigns the serial number and puts it on the website and then he sells the item.

This seller got suckered and is trying to get his money back plus some from a bigger sucker.
