You don't really believe that, do you?

Why are you meeting with her attorney? They're fake. If her attorney collects too, he should know they're fake as well.

Seems unlikely. She and her attorney are either totally ignorant about vintage sports cards (what attorney would assign such a high value without proper research?) or knowledge is being withheld and it's a scam.

Her attorney? Really? Name? Location? My scam sensor is screaming.

At least yours is still working. Mine got so high it broke.

Alrighty, judging by the masses, it's a scam. I'll let her know that she's lying and all of her cards are fake.

Thanks guys for the advice and help. Guess I'm not as well informed in vintage as I thought I was. Lessons learned.

Thanks again. This thread can now be deleted.

Why do you feel the need to delete all of your past threads? Everything you sell, you delete pictures of and the record of the sale. I just did a quick search last night and it seems you have a pattern of selling and then deleting. Asking, deleting. Posting, deleting. Hiding something?

I gave him an infraction this morning for deleting posts and told him why and was as overly polite as I could possibly be. I told him it wasn't personal and nothing else would happen. He PM'd that he would keep it in mind. I almost said something else but let it go. Then a short time (an hour maybe) later he posted right above here, "this thread can now be deleted". He is in time out..

Are we being scammed? By "this guy"?
