I think it's going to go something like this-

"Well, I got ripped off so now I am trying to rip someone else off"

Wow. Ballsy move there. This actually made me laugh and then I realized it's not really a funny thing he is doing. Sad.

He's also selling the Aaron Rookie.

Not only does he have the same name for both eBay and Net54, he also charges over 11 dollars for shipping.

When I first read his post this morning I felt there was more to come. Look at his response to his card being fake below. He then seems like an expert and says it looks legit in person. He wanted people to say it was real with him on this board so he could tell people on ebay to come over to Net54Baseball to see how it was a legit card. It is truly funny how the majority of people selling fake cards take really bad pictures and spell really bad. I bet he will be posting a 52 Topps Mantle for sale soon on ebay.

They are totally legit, in person you can tell they are real. I know i dont take real good pics, but they are the real thing, as all my cards are.
I just never got them graded, as i think they hold better value not doing so. The Goudey Ruth, probably only be a 1-poor, so i anot worried on it.
If anyone was interested, they be for sell. I just been collecting Mantles for now. Just happened to pick up some nice cards along my travels.

Lesson learned, is to buy only graded cards and only from SGC,BVG,PSA.
So you find out from a knowledgable group of collectors that the Ruth is not real and you run off and list on feeBay?

If you think they are real and you had them posted in your "Keepers for your Mancave" section of photobucket then why would you immediately want to dump them on eBay right after you found out everyone here thinks they are fake? Wouldn't you still want to keep them in your Mancave if they were real?

Yes, it's only been up an hour and fourteen minutes.

Jason- I am sure you saw the other thread with the seller being taken aback that it's not real?

Let him get what he wants, supply will never meet his demand.

Ban him and move on IMO
