The seller is definitely reading these boards. After I posted the message, he sent me a message that says:

"I will NOT be accepting your "envelope of cash" for the ball either. Feel free to send it but payment is through PAYPAL only or certified check with 7 days to allow it to clear. If you try and send the envelope it will be opened at the post office with the postmaster present. if the envelope would be empty, fraud charges will be filed against you and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."

I can't believe that he would suggest that I would send an empty envelope.

David,

If he is reading these boards, how is it that the ADMIN's don't put a stop to this (unless you don't have to be a member to read the posts). It is VERY obvious to me the seller "STOLE" Ted Z.'s scan (which can be proven), and attempted to use fraud to get paid for something. If this can be proven, how is that not mail fraud as well??

Thoughts, anyone?? It is time we get SCUMBAGS like this off eBay

Since it is pretty obvious the the seller draggin98sdime obviously reads these boards it would be nice if he would chime in with his side of the story. Topics could include:
*The stolen Paige scan.
*The stolen Gehrig scan.
*The purchase of a Gehrig RP a month before the stolen Gehrig scan auction.

Another topic I would like to touch.
*If the OP clearly brought the issue of the fishy listing to the board and knew of the stolen scan, why drop almost 3k on the card?

Steve,

I was thinking the same thing. It was quite odd that the OP purchased and paid for the card, then less than 3 hours later scans the board and finds Ted's image, then asks for the boards opinion. What made the buyer look at the board so soon after buying the card? I definitely would have done my homework prior to dropping that kind of money.

With that said, the seller is obviously a scammer who stole the scan from Ted. I hope the OP gets his money back and the seller is prosecuted to the fullest extent.

Default Scans noticed after purchase:(

I already purchased the card and then a few hours later browsing through the boards I came across the scans. I thought it was a legit transaction at the time of purchase up to the point that I saw Teds post from 10/2009 with the exact same scans of the item that I purchased a few hours beforehand.

Default Also to note

I really did alot of reading about the Paige card before the purchase and it was completely ironic that I did a "leaf Paige" search and came across the posting with the scans but unfortunately it was a few hours after I made the purchase so the whole thing was just by chance.
