I don't think he is an out and out scammer, he always struck me as someone who didn't really know much about cards and wasn't willing to learn. I believe that he wanted so badly to fit into the clique of the pre-war crowd, but didn't realize that he would never have the resources to fit in there. I was looking at some of his items for sale and noticed that he wanted $17 for a 1979 Topps Reggie Jackson described as very good-excellent with no scan. The only way that card could be worth any where near that is if it is in a PSA 9 or 10 slab. I am guessing that he got taken in by a scammer on those two Ty Cobb cards, and rather than eat the two bogus cards and chalk it up to experience after being told by several people here that they were fake, he stubbornly ignored them and believed what he wanted to anyway despite the contrary evidence.

I would argue your Reggie story proves he is a scammer. Along with the "NM/MT" '63 Maris in the other thread linked above which MIGHT have been EX.

I still want so badly to fit into the clique of the pre-war crowd too.
