Default Learning a lesson the hard way

Posted By: tbob

About 3 or 4 weeks ago I spotted an E97 Young on ebay from a buyer with little or no feedback and the card looked a little suspect. I made a post on the board about it and asked for opinions as to its authenticity. Opinions differed but many said it looked like a reprint. All I did was call attention to the card which still went for a big bargain price. Granted several collectors didn't want to take a chance on its being a fake which held the price down, but by my making the post of inquiry, some collectors' attention was called to the card and they bid on it. The bottom line is the same card is now on ebay in an SGC holder at a much greater price.
I learned a lesson, sometimes you need to keep ye olde trap shut
