I noticed that this card (or one like it) has been sold several times in a row on eBay. Red flag for me (ever since card #2), but I hadn't checked to see if these were just returned to him or if he was selling multiples of the same card (aka reprints).
Thanks for giving me some comfort that my spidey-senses aren't totally off.

This seller has sold a ton of strip cards, many of them W590, and a bunch of these were offered in larger size lots. Many of these lots included numerous duplicates. I won one of his lots, and all the cards are completely authentic.
I have seen many original strip card collections that have included numerous duplicates. This seller got lucky and inherited a boatload that included a bunch of Lou Gehrig cards. Brian Last edited by brianp-beme; 06-19-2018 at 05:52 PM. |

Easy way to check, is it the same photo in each Gehrig listing?

I checked the pictures in the listings and they are all different.

Me too, clearly different cuts on each Gehrig.

Maybe not same photo but I’d like to see one of his cards authenticated. If I am
Wrong I stand corrected. Why would someone not have these cards graded and probably leave 50% of more on the table? Inexplicable. Last edited by Snapolit1; 06-20-2018 at 01:09 AM. |

I sell a ton and honestly just don't have time for the grading thing, the turnaround time is just too dang long to be honest. If I purchase already graded great but have rarely had things graded myself.

Not everyone with cards is in the hobby or even that aware of the grading game. These cards apparently were passed down to the seller...and they want to sell. This scenario has been around as long as the cards have. Are they leaving money on the table? Of course. But they probably are ecstatic that they are able to get multiple hundreds of dollars for cut down little pieces of cardboard.
One of the strip cards I received from this seller is at the grading company. When it comes back (knowing the grading company, it might be quite some time) I will let you all know if it was graded authentic or not. Like I said, what I received was all completely authentic. Brian |
