My email history shows that I bought a PSA slabbed T206 off the seller in 2017. It was a completely unremarkable transaction.

I have never dealt with him, but I have noticed him. His prices are usually very, very high.
The Battersbox had a low grade, graded 1962 Jell-O card. It was a 1 or a 2, and it wasn't one of the rare ones. Battersbox had it for sale for a long, long time. They kept dropping their price. I think it got around $12.50, and Toppsaholic bought it. He immediately reposted it for $100 , even though it sat unsold for a very long time, at a much lower price.
I have seen him do the same with other cards. As I say, he has very high prices.

During the past few years I bought a couple of items from him with no problems. A couple of months ago, I made an offer on one of his cards. He didn't respond, but he raised the price on the card.

I called him an jerk, and he sent 2 responses. The first was that he reevaluated the card and realized he had it priced too low. (He didn't. It was priced way too high) The second response was that I need to be careful because he knows my home address and my email address.

I don't know if he followed through, but shortly after that response I started receiving emails from gambling sites and porn sites. It may have originated from him, but I don't know for sure.

That is likely one of the only people on all of eBay where no matter what the card is and how much I want it or have been looking for years, I would pass without a second thought.

I bought a pre-war card from him last week. It arrived yesterday. The only thing unusual about the transaction was how exceedingly well-packed the card was.

I just had this happen. I was searching for a card. It popped up at a great price. Then I seen who the seller was, needless to say I still need the card.

If it was at a great price maybe he has seen this thread and was setting a trap for you Ben.
