PSA Grading at its best

[CMIZ5290]

I have seen numerous threads about Rick Probstein, and, here we are again. News flash, if you don't trust the guy, don't bid on his auctions, period... What is so difficult about this?? If it was such a big red flag, why in the hell doesn't Ebay do anything about it? What does that say about them if there were issues??

Ebay does not do anything about it because Probstein makes them a lot of money. What does that say about ebay? It say's a lot. Not shocked that both Probstein and ebay are more concerned about making money than they are integrity.

I guess my question is, why do we keep feeding them money? Is there no legal recourse on the accusations against Ebay and Probstein?

I don't give any money to Probstein & I never will. As far as ebay goes I spend less and less of my card collecting money there (not that miss me) and find myself buying more from folks here at net54.

Legal recourse? I am not a lawyer so I can't really say. Probstein makes ebay money so they won't do anything about him. As far legal recourse against ebay I am sure if some publicity starved DA wanted to take on the case he could and make a name for him/herself. Or perhaps a class action lawsuit? Yeah and the settlement will be free ebay bucks!


edit to add... Wow... that's horrible what happened to that ticket!

Mr. Schneider,

Very saddening. In my opinion probably worthy of its own thread....
I hope you are satisfied with the outcome when and if that day comes.

My best to you,

Frank
