Help with Delong card; fake?
 

Posted By: <b>Rob Fouch</b><p>I bought a Delong Lefty Grove off ebay recently and am not sure of its authenticity. I'm new to Delongs and took a flier on the card. Just thought it was a cool looking card. Don't know much about them, but it doesn't feel or look right to me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Rob<br /><br />Here are scans of the front and back.<br /><br /><img src="http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/6305/grovef8gz.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/3929/groveb3vl.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Ben</b><p>Yikes....thats definitely a fake. The green printing on the back is a dead giveaway, as is the card stock.<br /><br /><img src="http://i12.ebayimg.com/01/i/06/6d/c8/cc_1.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>Thanks for the help. Now that I look at the auction info more closely, it might be a hijacked account. Seller hadn't sold anything for a while. Probably out my cash -- wasn't a huge amount or anything, fortunately. Oh well. I've had decent luck taking a chance here and there and winding up with a good card for a good price. Win some, lose some, I suppose. <br />
