Hmm....maybe it'll be sold to the underbidder on a second chance.....fishy stuff at best.....

I agree..it is a waste of time...nothing gets resolved..sour grapes..all that...but if you add this simple phrase at the end of any complaint or bitch

- " IM JUST SAYIN "

....it makes it all acceptable and right

Aren't new people joining this forum every day? Aren't there members who visit infrequently? Is it a bad decision to educate them on what to look out for when bidding on Ebay?

I've, *gasp*, bid with Brent and watched some items from Probstein since these revelations but you can be damn sure that I've watched the bidder's history on them all, tried to find any previous sales history, and backed away at the first sign of anything fishy. If it weren't for these threads, I would have never known to look and wouldn't have walked away from some items.

To summarize, I completely disagree with you Kevin. Sure, as an individual buyer, I cannot completely change the system but pointing these things out does make a difference, even if its only a small one.

Do any single one of you people bashing Rick actually try and send him an E-mail?

He was pretty quick to act when I did.

Yes he probably did act pretty quick for you, you consign a ton of cards through him. Yes members on here have emailed Rick. He was told about a Bill Russell auto he was selling as basketball HOFer Bill Russell when it was really Bill Russell the baseball player who has little to no value. He said thank you for the info but left the auction listing the same.

Two very different issues. One can be handled by a return and some hassle, the other is illegal.

Just noticed the bidder in question has had his bid canceled less than an hour ago. No doubt in my mind this post had something to do with it!

Thanks to this forum, I no longer bid on anything from Probstein123. PWCC is getting close to me drawing the curtain on them as well. The message is getting out.
