Ebay Scammer

[yankees23]

Thought I'd share another scammer selling a fake 33' Goudey Gehrig, T206 Cobb, and 52' Topps Mantle. What I love about this guy is that if you go through his feedback you can see that on 10.11.14 he bought the Lou Gehrig as a reprint for 1 cent. I emailed the guy asking if the Gehrig was real and he said he had taken it to shows and shops and most people think it is real. I then responded that the card was the same reprint you bought on 10.11 to which he did not respond. Classic.

Scammers don't like to be caught. I love shining lights on roaches (so to speak) to watch them scurry. It never hurts to publicize these guys so thanks for posting it.

couldn't even wait until his purchase dropped off of the advanced search?

He's relisted it as an "RP"....I guess it pains him to call it a reprint. Also he says "his loss could be your gain."

I had an email conversation with this guy letting him know that he's being discussed in a collector's forum. Here is his response to me.

"There pulled but I'm not the only one in this world who has boughten something on here and resold it its ebay a world wide garage sale and flea market I did put rp on it not my fault people were bidding on it"

He has now changed his ebay name to "daddyof41336".

How I see it is yes he was wrong for trying to put it up there as the real deal but the bidders are just as dumb for bidding on these items but that's the risk one takes because if you guys can see where he bought that card for a penny as a RP so can the bidders so instead of emailing him and messaging him the obvious you guys should've done that to the bidders but hey don't be mad at him the mickey card had a bid at about 350 the ty was 80 so was lou he had RP in description and in the notes again that's the risk we all take on ebay I'm sure that guy isn't the only one on ebay doing that just look there's thousands of cards that are being sold like that and why do you guys care your not bidding on it and it's not on any baseball card websites one could say your mad cuz he was gonna make money on them again that's on the bidders

are you still able to do a search of someone's purchases? If so, please tell me how. I used to enjoy seeing what my friends/competitors were buying. Thanks.
