Oh I see. Still I don't think that is necessarily a red flag. They may not have had the capability to take good pictures. I've posted pictures of cards I've bought, using the auction photos, because it saves me a step, and my images won't be as good anyways.

And when the buyer gets a different card, he has plenty of recourse through ebay and paypal. The real problem is when someone buys a phony card, and doesn't figure it out in time to seek recourse.

And as for the circumstances of the sale...who knows? The person may have needed cash quick and sold to these people. Or maybe these sellers ARE the buyers and they tried (and failed) to flip for a profit.

As for the loss? Frankly I think that first buyer overpaid. A badly centered 3.5 isn't worth $7000 to me. $5000 seems about right.

I just don't think there is enough here to claim fraud, and I've rung the bell on half a dozen phony Mantles already.
