Ruth - Wagner - Jackson Cards on Ebay

[E93]

I guess the guy who just paid $575k for the BN Ruth decided to flip it on ebay.

I'd bid on that Plank t206 PSA 6 but already have two.

I wonder if he's just running the auctions as a goof. No one could really believe that this scam would work. Could they?

I started a thread last night, questioning why a particular T206 went for so much money. When I did a search of previous sales, I stumbled on to listings where the guy was selling Hi-Res pictures of cards for $9.99. For ten bucks, he would actually send you a copy of the picture in the listing.

Two ladies did that and thought they could get away with it while being sued over it. The case went to my favorite judge, Judge Judy. The 2 scammers actually went on the show and said they sold a picture of a smartphone for +/- $200 in their ebay auction (and not the phone itself). Judge Judy called them thieves, scammers, idiots and every other name in the book and ruled against them. It was quite a funny show...

Update: two of the cards bid up to $5000 already and one at $6000....Like I said earlier, he should have done it Buy Now and he might already have some dough...

I guess this seller has nothing better to do on Labor Day weekend, other than stealing scans from REA's prior auctions.

I just sent him an email asking to pickup the cards in person after I win them. The location listed is only a hour from me. I asked for his mailing address. I'm curious as to his response.

Correct, the scammers on Judge Judy never did get it. They thought they were in the right the whole time even after found guilty. What is sort of ironic is that if these scammers would spend as much time on legitimate stuff, as they do on their fraud, they could be very successful. But they are idiots and that is what idiots do, I guess.

Gives me an idea: I'll sell you a picture of this card for $9.95--and of another $330 I will throw in the card.

Looks like the Wagner was taken down and relisted.

Amazing that despite the obvious, ebay has not yet taken action. Based on the history this guy likes racy posters, cheap wrestling cards, and I saw he bought a $7 thurman munson. Of course he would own 2 1914 ruths, and a Psa 6 ruth rookie m 101. What is even more amazing is that people are actually bidding thousands hoping this guy is legit. I guess these same people respond to those Nigerian need help getting my money out emails.
