If you happened to be stupid, you might as well be arrogant about it.

You forgot about the 0.0000000001 % who are right and we are wrong (in general, not about Honus).

My opinion is 99% thievery and 1% ignorance. If they didn't know whether the card is authentic for all of the listings, why do they all have no return policies? And who would not send a big dollar card in for authentication? Practically anyone can google Babe Ruth or any of the other big names and see that these items are worth a lot.

You can usually tell by the wording. "My local card shop said it looks real but according to eBay rules since it it is not graded I must sell it as an reprint" and is wording from someone who knows it's crap. I've more than once said you can often identify a fake by reading the auction description and not even looking at the images.
You can also tell by messaging that the item is a fake and observe how he/she reacts. I had someone who said he didn't realize and removed the auction-- obviously an innocent person. Others just ignore you or worse. Last edited by drcy; 08-25-2015 at 11:06 AM.

Let us not forget the ones who have the cards from their grandfather's attics and have a 0 feedback rating. They fall under the inbred idiot thieves.
