Ebay auction...something fishy going on?
 
Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>First of all, if I'm wrong...I apologize. Just looks too fishy for me not to give some warning to anyone getting involved here. Seller has a feedback score of 4, has an e107 coughlin that is the exact scan (at least appears it to me) from what Seth used in a 19thcenturyonly auction. Then he has a t206 matty (may even be fake, hard to tell from picture..pretty grainy), that he describes as a Mathewson with a "Havana Cigarettes" back (from a no-name grader). Besides the fact one is a scan that looks like a duplicate scan, and the other is taking with a camera...it just seems too weird. I have a problem thinking that someone would own both of these and not know to describe a T206 Matty with an EPDG back as such (and more I look, it is a fake). Links are below...and again, if i'm wrong...sorry-not trying to out auctions! <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1903-E107-Bill-Coughlan-SGC-Grade-10-poor-1_W0QQitemZ320255624761" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1903-E107-Bill-Coughlan-SGC-Grade-10-poor-1_W0QQitemZ320255624761</a><br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-T206-Havana-Cigarettes-Christy-Mathewson-NR_W0QQitemZ320255617379" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-T206-Havana-Cigarettes-Christy-Mathewson-NR_W0QQitemZ320255617379</a>

Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>I checked vintagecardprices (free plug, Bobby) and the seller of the e107 did indeed buy the card from Seth.
