Default Any Cobb Gururs?

I assume this is a dud too? Seems fishy since the listing is for the card "with a free autograph that was acquired TTM."

I actually almost did the same thing myself...I assume the TTM thing is not out of the question, but the story/listing seems weird. It is as if they hid the lead.

A total scam. The seller thinks he can say TTM and avoid the fact that the Cobb is a total forgery.

It is actually very clever wording. If you look at the description, it never says that Cobb signed it, simply that it is autographed.

Amazing what can be gotten away with on ebay.
Look at his feedback as a seller. There are just so many stupid bidders on ebay or are they just shills? Seems like a couple of buyers keep buying much of this "TTM" stuff.
And he thinks he is legally bulletproof by saying TTM and the card with the autograph is free. What else can these people come up with??
I bet a good prosecutor can shed that BS pretty easily.
Hopefully LE gets into this.

The key to this scam is that you are paying $460+ for the common unsigned card and the "autographed" card is described as free.

So, how do you get a refund for an item that was a "free" part of the lot?

It is an attempt at trying to be clever but I am fairly certain that when LE goes after this guy this attempted scam would fall apart. It is pure BS and any LE or jury could see through this in a moment. Apparently the only ones who cannot see through this are some ebay buyers.<sigh>.
