Default High bidder whoever you are....(Cobb reprint)

Posted By: Bill

A lot of times (not in this case), you can go back into the sellers feedback within the past month and see what auctions they have won. I've seen quite a few where they have bid on and won reprint/fake cards in auctions where it has been stated so. They then turn around a few weeks later and post it as a "I got this in an estate sale" or "This was found in a coffee can in an old tree" or some other outrageous claim. I usually call them on this but rarely get a response back. If I do, it's an unprofessional email as you might imagine. Other times they close it down. Or, my old favorite, I email ebay with proof (about either a fake card or shill bidding), and they don't do a thing about it. In that case, I have some fun with the seller.

I've already emailed this seller twice now, once with a link to show that he has a fake. If it's still up tonight, I'll assume he knows it's a fake and is just looking for a quick buck.

Change your socks, drink water, and drive on.
