[I Only Smoke 4 the Cards]

I did not say anything to the seller....here is what I thought about.

1. Did the seller purchase these as authentic and trying to sell knowing they are reprints to recoup his money ?

2. Is the seller completely unaware that the cards were reprinted.

Why didn't you say anything?
