This is truly sad! The auction lasted two hours or so and found a sucker

to paraphrase PT Barnum, (at least) one sucker bids every minute.

seller states in his discription...."my feedback speaks for itself." it is private,hidden from buyers!

but his/her feedback speaks for itself! Its says I might have a negative and some neutrals and be private but that doesnt make me any different from anyone else who sells reprints.

I really dont see a problem with the price since it is a piedmont 42 back

Did you happen to notice it's a Piedmont factory 42 back? If you're gonna fake it, might as well do it with a really tough back.

John- we posted it was a factory 42 back simultaneously. Must be in the stars.

This was a much better BIN purchase this afternoon on a tough back:

I chose to pass on it, but knew it wouldn't last long. At least it was legit unlike the Cobb.

Are you hitting on me Barry? I admit we have vintage cards in common and we both like long walks on the beach at sunset but other than that we are like water and something that doesnt go with water

John- Are we really water and something other than water? I think you are jesting. But yes, I was hitting on you. It's been a slow day.

Clicking the link, is this sale "invalid" now? Was this auction killed?

The first link was working, now its not. I didn't like the auction and reported it to Ebay, before they did anything about it, a sucker ended the auction with BIN. I guess Ebay got around to my complaint and invalidated the auction after the fact.

To summarize, the auction was for a T206 Red Cobb doctored to look authentic but worn. It was private auction and seller claimed they didn't want to hurt their feedback so the card is being sold as a reprint. BIN $150 and someone bought it two hours after the listing.

I was going to say we are like water and ice because i melt whenever im around you but i thought better of it.I havent seen your pic in the picture sharing thread so for now your flirting will go all for not but im flattered.I did some research and if we got married this is what i would turn into.Its amazing someone thought this particular thing might happen and made a website to show me what my life would be like....

I don't know how to scan a picture on the site, otherwise I would. It might scare a few people away, but that's the price you have to pay. Is that real estate photo a picture of you? Guess so.

No the real estate picture is what id look like if i married you,id of course take your name because your more popular than me(at least until we had this exchange you were).Im a little younger than that real estate guy as he has more than 30 years experience in real estate and i dont have more than 30 years experience in anything due to my age just becoming 30.

I also wasnt looking forward to having those 5 kids they predicted!
