Looking at this sellers (twibcards) I find it very strange that he is selling all PSA 5 HOFer's. Limited feedback and never sold a vintage card before. ALL PSA 5's ? I wish my submissions were that good. I wouldn't touch these.

    Funny you should bring that up. I had two of his auctions on my watch list including this one:

    Twibcards auction

    Funny thing is that this one is not a PSA 5 but a PSA 7. I was still EXTREMELY weary about bidding on his auctions though.

    The same red flag had reared it's head in my mind too.

    Low feedback guys scare me, but I guess a guy has to start somewhere. Not exactly the high priced cards usually being scammed either.

    I don't know what to think.

    Sorry, I meant all the T206's were 5's. 100 cards ending all with in 1 day ans some pretty impressive stuff. Could well be his whole collection. But could be a sophisitcated scammer who knows super high end cards will raise too many red flags. As we get smarter spotting them, thet have to get smarter trying to disquise them. Could be a ligit seller, but how do get such a mixture of cards now a days with out ever buying any on the bay?

    Another bayer e-mailed the seller that he wanted to pick them up in person. Seller stated only if the sale was over $2000. No paypal protection. I just dont know. I guess I'm just a tad bit more skeptical now. Could well be a great buy.

    Great! the reason i ask is that, when I read that other post but was under the impression it had not yet arrived.

    sorry for the confusion.

    As for the auction I have no idea. Like you say it is either a scam or not. when odds are like that I pass.

    Hmmmmmmmmm, well it is over $2k and the seller said he would allow a purchase that high to be picked up in person. I'm sure Hal has no problems flying in to get it. Guess we just have to wait and watch it unfold. He has a few 5's I would like to bid on, but I think I'll pass.

    I put my faith in the consistency of the scans and rolled the bones on a few of these. I ended up winning the Joss portrait. Stay tuned...
