Absurd T206 Scam

Posted By: Paul

This guy can't even decide if he bought this $25000 lot of low quality reprints from an "old lady" or from a "guy" who cried as he took the cards away.

I emailed the guy "Pretty godd story for a bunch of reprints" and he said:

"there not reprints they were my grandfathers if you don't believe it then don't bid on them just leave me alone"

Where on ebay do you report these bozos, I can never find it.

I believe a major harassment job is in order for this bozo.

He also says he is new to ebay selling and then later he is getting back to ebay after a while off and selling his old user name that had problems, nice

Lee, I did my part - I emailed him. It would be real fun to bombard this seller with emails and try to jam his mail box... now if every one found a program to send a hundred emails it would be great....

emailed him as well.
I said "for everyone's sake, take this pathetic fake off of eBay now."
I hope we bombard him with negative emails.

And of his 7 feedbacks, three are from the purchase of reprints just like the ones he is now selling. Go figure.

Here's what I wrote in my email to this seller:

"Nice Fakes. You may want to take some time off from ebay and read "Enlish for Dummies" and then just maybe you will be able to get that GED and stop trying to rip people off on ebay. Hopefully you learned something about honesty in church today."

Check out what this guy has just posted up on Ebay...all those T206 reprints he purchased (read his feedback) are now for sale as originals. Also read the description where he talks about all the Goudeys he has...all from the reprint 1933 Goudey set he purchased as detailed in his feedback. If this guy had even 10% of a brain he'd wait to post these on Ebay as "real" after we could no longer read the feedbacks where he bought the reprints.

I guess he couldn`t remember if he got them from his grandfather or some old lady. Maybe it was a 75 year old transvestite! The topper is his last feedback purchase, a program on running ebay auctions to make Big $$$$$$. Wonder what chapter these "auctions" come under? Will also be email er, writing I mean phone call, going over to see him to examine his "find".

If you look a little after this jokers listings, USEDMART is also listing some "vintage" baseball cards. Both are from Lock Haven, PA. I wonder if this is the same person, family members or friends?

It looks like our efforts are not having the desired effect. He has learned from his mistakes and has now made his feedback private. Now, bidders cannot see that he just purchased all of these reprints as reprints.

This is the most amazing set of miscuts I have ever seen.

I have sent my complaint in. Has anyone else filed a complaint? Let's get him shutdown.

I also agree that link should be in the site somewhere.

The scammer that was shut down earlier today (dbestcardz) of Lock Haven, PA looks to be back as 7inchmadness.

i think you are right it's got to be him,who else could put this in their auction........... "I Quarantee only the condition of this card. As for age, look at the pictures, it's authentic!! I don't have trust in the grading systems. I sent beckett an absolutly perfect Nolan Ryan rookie. Weeks later I got a graded 3 1969 topps. They tried to send me another card and keep mine but even got the year wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
