Default Fake Cards & Garden Gnomes

http://m.ebay.com/sch/i.html?sid=kat...&isRefine=true

Until very recently, I had never seen any fake E105s on eBay before. This seller is peddling an unusually eclectic assortment of fakes: E105s, E92s, Star Player Candy, Orange Borders, E253s, E107s, Lections, D380s, etc...



...and, uh, garden gnomes?

Correct, though I would argue there's a difference between a reprint and a fake.

I love the Mello Mint set, are they pretty pricey? I don't know much about them

All I'm saying is at least the seller isn't trying to sell it as a legit original card.

Whenever you get a K-State thing, you ALWAYS must get two of them.

One to shit on, and one to cover it up with.

Yes but a reprint is legal and a counterfeit is a crime. Plus the people buying these things fall into two categories. Dumb people who think there's an outside chance the card is real due to the story so they're willing to throw 5% at it. The other group is those who think, "man that looks pretty good, I bet I could pass that off." and buy it intending to rip off others. Even people who are genuinely in the reprint market don't want these cards.

Frankly, I was wondering about some of those cards also. Reprinting Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner, Ty Cobb cards I get. However, who would reprint a W519 Type 1 Eddie Collins card? Link

They aren't reprints. They are counterfeits.
