Is anyone buying this newly made junk or are all of these auctions shilled?

Surprised you forgot, Adam - that's the same site with your mug on the homepage.

I have purchased about 4 different "Polo Grounds" cards for a Polo grounds display I am making with T206 cards. They fit very well in this type of display. The cards are thick, laminated sheet of wood with the transfer or painting on them. I did purchase them about 10-12 months ago and have watched the prices soar to ranges that I would rather spend the money on a true pre-war card. I have also purchased 4 Trolley Cards (Mathewson, Lajoie, Brown and Chance) and have made them into a display. The cards really do present well.

I have also had several lengthy email discussions with the seller, and was very impressed with his responses. The Helmar Brewing Company is tied closely to this seller (will not disclose more due to privacy) and I in no way have concern about his honesty.

As I posted in another thread, I have purchased a couple and just really liked the look of them and have lost bidding on a number. I plan to add a few more to my collection in the future.

I dont understand why people take issue with them, collect what you like and let others do the same. Shame on you for calling what I collect junk.
