- no refunds
- the best is that he'll mail it to you First Class -- can't even spring for Priority

Sadly, it is getting bids on it of considerable value.

Never heard of SCE and googling it didn't bring up any relevant hits. Has anyone reported this clown yet?

For those keeping score, the fake Honus Wagner listing has already been removed. I am sure it will reppear in a few days with the always interesting descriptor: "I am selling as a reprint" or, better yet, "a novelty card." As if this removes any culpability for passing off a fake as potentially real.
