The Ebay scans are the exact same scans in the auction listings. Clear on the Aaron and the Fran Tarkenton. I would find this odd as well

Default Aaron mess
The Aaron situation is pretty fishy. A non-paying bidder in their auction, then it suddenly sells 15 days later on the BAY?

The "there's something fishy here" expression relates to one of my guys, Charles Lindbergh. When Bruno Hauptmann, the accused kidnapper of Lindy Jr., claimed that a "Mr. Fisch" was the real kidnapper and conveniently he was now dead...the phrases "fish story" and "something's fishy.." originated.

Candiman = Fishiman.

I applaud the members here, especially Peter, who are trying to prevent fraudsters from running amok.

I'm done. These guys are bullshit. They can't talk their way out of this one. They won't never see another bid from me. The people who bid on their cards on Ebay are fools. Ebay needs to shut these guys down.

The fact that they received so many bids from net54 members in the first auction is the most disappointing part of all if this to me. It shouldn't be that hard to spot a scam when the evidence is right there for all to see. My hope is that members will report their Ebay listings until they are banned again and stop supporting their new auction house. It also wouldn't hurt if we would let these threads die to stop the free advertising.

I have a feeling this thread has a ways to go and that more information will be revealed.

Well, it's either a non-paying bidder () or the house shilled up the auction because it wasn't going high enough. How many people are willing to believe the first explanation?

Peter,

If you actually look at the items from the website auction that were unpaid and have been resold, almost every one of them has sold for less on eBay then they did on the website. There is no conspiracy going on here. I know you guys would love there to be but there simply isn't. When we started the website, for the first auction we obviously wanted to get as many people to register as possible. Therefore, we didn't require any hobby references or credit card information when registering. That, along with some bidders reneging because they said they didn't read this forum prior to registering and bidding in our auction, did result in several non-paying bidders. In the near future, we will begin to implement requirements when registering to bid in order to deter potential non-paying bidders.

Daniel
