Seller's first listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1952-Topps-M...item33859c27f1

Doesn't sell for obvious reasons. Seller re-lists this:

Looks like CAS is fairly easy giving this beauty a 5. Except for the creases... and its fake... and a bad fake at that... and CAS doesn't exist as a real TPG... Other that that I'm all over this beauty!

My motto has always been "Buy the fake card - not the fake holder".........

Then again, maybe the grade on this item is simply referring to the condition of the holder, and not the condition of the card.........

Love this line from the first listing -

If it were not for the two creases, this card would probably grade an "8"



Yeah..... and if it weren't for the first million, I'd be a millionaire

Reported to Ebay as fraudulent.

Here's the line that made me angry:
I can only trust that the professionals at C.A.S. have done their job authenticating and grading this card.
As a broker of graded sportscards, our responsibility is the accurate description and delivery of the item for sale, not to guarantee how a card will be assessed by another grading company. Any issue a buyer has with a cards 3rd party grade should be addressed with the company that graded the card, not us.


Translation: I know the card is fraud, so when you discover that, contact the non-existent C.A.S. with your problem, not me.
