The real deal......No really

We just moved into a house that was built in 1910. My wife and I have been doing alot of renovating and decided to tackle the bathroom. Upon removing the toilet tank we found this card in a yellowed plastic bag taped on the inside of the tank. Incredibly it sustained no damage from all those years in the toilet! Well it quickly became my wife's "prize possession" and now that we are getting divorced I decided to steal her card ( she found it in the toilet first) and sell it on ebay. So I took the card down to the basement and went to put it up in the floor joists and low and behold I found a old box. Upon opening the box I found like 4 packs of old cigarettes that said something about a turkey or something on them. These are all still sealed and I will be listing them with my wifes card on ebay. Of course I am no card collecting expert and will have to list everything as a reprint or reproductions of the originals ( ebays rules you know) not mine. So dont send me harassing emails or bother me with any questions, I am too busy ripping other people off then to bother with you.

    Nice corners on that "plastic" or "ceramic" Mantle. BVG will give it a 9.5 for sure.

  • you know...one day i took a walk around my neighborhood. A mile or two into this walk, i felt something odd attached to the sole of my left shoe. I look down and 'lo and behold...it was a t206 honus wagner stuck at the bottom of my shoe! Now, as if lady luck stepped on my toes, attached to this card was a 1914 sporting life Babe Ruth rookie card!! With such incredible luck, i had a little more bounce in my step. I decided to prolong my walk given this new energy. About 3 miles in, a foreign object hit me on the head out of nowhere! I cursed the sky and looked down to see what was thrown in my direction. It was a flat, gray rock. I picked it up and on the other side was a 1952 topps mickey mantle card!! Incredible!! Later that day, i found a winning lottery ticket for $1,000,000...heidi klum proposed to me...and i stumbled upon old, dirty slabs of stone that happen to have the originally inscribed ten commandents that were handed from God to Moses! What a day!

    All three cards, along with a 1951 bowman mickey mantle, 1986 Fleer Michael Jordan and a 1951 bowman willie mays, all of which were just lying around my house, are on ebay. Even though i know all of these cards are extremely valuable and i just listed their specific dates and brands, i have no knowledge of baseball cards. Per ebay rules, i will list these cards as a reprint. BUT, the word "reprint" is not stated anywhere AND they look REALLY, REALLY, REALLY authentic.

    I only accept cash. Refund are not acceptable. Shipping and handling for each card is $100 to cover the saran wrap i will cover the card in and the white, thin envelope i will send the card in.

    Also, the ten commandents are up on ebay. If you are the lucky winner of that auction, i will send you a free pope john paul II card...guaranteed to be authentic and worth millions!!

    You know - this would be even funnier, if it wasn't happening all of the time on Ebay...
