    How did the fool get the money to begin with is what I want to know!
  • This has been spotted by the guys on the smack zone...

    He bought reprints off of ioffer and is now trying to pass them off as the real thing.

    That's nice work nightcrawler -

    Scammer


    How does that guy get away with selling admitted fakes, using the exact copyrighted design as Fleer?

    Has anyone here actually reported him to ebay yet?
    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.
  • Wasn't my work - it was timzcardz. Looks like he sent a mail over to drewbie@ebay about this seller...maybe we should all start asking him questions about the reprints he purchased on ioffer!

    I just emailed Pimptesticles and asked for a high resolution scan of the fleer logo itself.

    Next thing will be the usual lame excuse about how lightning struck his house and blew out his scanner and it will be weeks before a replacement can be obtained.

    Why not just send out a contract man to take him out!

  • Here is what he sent me in response to me calling him out.


    "NO I BOUGHT A REPRINT THAT CLEARLY SAYS REPRINT ON THE BACK, I BOUGHT IT TO COMPARE TO MY CARD, MY CARD IS A LIL THICKER AND DOSENT SAY REPRINT ON IT, IFF NEEED BE I CAN SEND EBAY A PIC W/ BOTH CARDS, I GOT MY CARDS FROM MY UNCLE WHO RECENTLY PASSES AND COLLECTED ALL SORTS OF CARDS,I NVER GOT INTO IT COLLECTING, JUST GETTING RID OF SOME NICE STUFF THAT WAS LEFT TO ME"
  • Hmm, if you look at the ioffer description from the seller that our friend bought from :

    All of my reprint cards have almost the exact paper stock as the original ones!!! They are produced from my small company! AS FOR THIS, YOU WILL BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE QUALITY OF MY REPRINT CARDS! All will be in MINT condition with no scratches. The corners are all SHARP! There is no reprint sticker on the back or anything that indicates it as a reprint.

    Why did he buy 50 of them then - oh with "his wedding invitations or to his buddies...or to his buddies"...or to unsuspecting eBay newbies!

  • LMAO this is too funny. If I wasn't involved in cards, ebay or reptiles my other obsession I would never know these scammers exist. It is amazing the amount of stupidity and lengths they will go to continue to dig themselves deeper.

  • The card is over $100 now!

    I see he is trying to throw off the scent by buying a stamped reprint Jordan on eBay, but what about the 50 he bought via ioffer?

    It's sad that we can see this going on, and can do little about it. Kind of like watching a robbery on a closed circuit camera, and you can't get involved to stop it.

  • ctsoxfanctsoxfan Posts: 6,246 ✭✭
    I believe you can go here - the link is found on this page:

    Report

    But, I think you might have to include some info to show that the card is indeed a fake (like the ioffer link), and I hope someone at Ebay would take the time to see the connection.
