I know it's poor form to out an active ebay auction, but I figure it's only fair to let as many people as possible have a shot at this once in a lifetime opportunity.

todd you're beyond a terrible person for outing this so early. please go back and edit before more people see it. we can always discuss about it 2 weeks after the auction ended when the buyer (could be me!) have safely accepted shipping w/o a chance of outside interference.

Looks like a SGC holder but he does not show the case. If it was returned then why was it not sent back in a sleeve?

Why does it appear that there reverse is in an SGC holder and the front not???

See yall at the dinner, the Auction and the National !!!!

Edit:

Must be my old eyes. Maybe the front is also in a holder?

I think this is probably an innocent mistake by this seller. I frequently see this ebay id in vintage auctions, and feedback indicates an involvement with vintage cards.

With that experience, it seems odd that the seller wouldn't recognize that this card is wrong. Still, I also can't see him risking 100% feedback at this point for an amateur scam attempt.

I simply cannot believe that anyone would bid over $100 for what is obviously a piece of fakery.

So now we know what theoretically happens when an e92 mates with an m101. Its the labradoodle of baseball cards.

i asked the seller what kind of holder it was and he/she replied that it came that way when he/she got it and there is no company name on the holder...i'm going to assume its fake eventhough i wouldnt mind having it...
