If I were cynical I would think the seller is hoping someone thinks it is Pedro. $1000 for a minor league common of a guy who won less than 10 games in the majors does seem steep.

But it is Pedro. Just not the HOFer Pedro. Kinda like when Rick Probstein sold the Bill Russell auto and didn't mention it was the baseball player and not the HOF basketball player of the same name. It's all in the marketing.

In legal terms, even if there is no overt misrepresentation, I think it's misleading.

Peter did you take into account that maybe the card has special meaning to the owner and the price would really need to excite them, otherwise he'd be very happy to just hold onto it.
