The worst FLUFF line used in a description



This guy blows right past the good ol' standard line of "it's a high-end 7", he thinks he is selling a near 10 that's sitting in a 7 holder!

BEST LINE: "PROFESSIONALLY AUTHENTICATED AND SONICALLY SEALED INSIDE A PROTECTIVE TAMPER EVIDENT HARD ACRYLIC HOLDER BY INDUSTRY LEADER PSA 7 NMINT .......... BOOKS FOR $6150 IN GRADED MINT 10 AND THIS IS CLOSE YOU BE THE JUDGE"

Ebay auction - what PSA 10???
"I'd like to apologize to one person in particular, the man who won the 'name the team' contest and got lifetime season tickets.''

- Pittsburgh Maulers President Paul Martha, whose USFL club folded after one season.

    Good for you.

    Wait, I was going to bid through the roof for the '93 Skybox Jordan that he lists is a PSA 10. But the picture shows it as a PSA 9. Should we just assume that this should be a 10 as well that PSA just cheated him on as well?

    We've talked about this guy before. Look at the price image

    sparky??



    << <i>Never a RESERVE. Check the Scan. The beckett population report is 262. SPARKY how many do you have? Three things are very obvious, only newly sent cards graded BGS 9 are being listed, ANY PROSET card BCCG graded is worthless, because they are boarderless and MASS produced, i am listing mine, being the only person with the heart to do it. This auction is for TEN(10) lot of 1990 proset football Emmitt Smith "draft" rookie cards #685, graded BGS 9. Yes Sparky i am flexing. Sports cards are a hobby for fun right? Well i am having a ton of laughs. Obviously i have no problem having 2/3rds of the 262 graded BGS 9. ONLY 170 or so Emmitt 1990 pro set cards graded BGS 9 have the SUBGRADES on the back, from now till ever, they will always have the subgrades on the front, which LOOKS ridiculous. The NEW, high tech, made for BGS grading, gimmick, Emmitt cards are cute, but cant stand in same room with his ONLY LICENSED "draft" rookie card BGS 9, which is over 15 years old now. What is even better is that when Emmitt goes into the Hall of Fame in 2010, this card will be EXACTLY 20 years old. Buckle your seat belt SPARKY, ride gonna get rough. I dont auction to COWBOY fans, thank you. Ship and handle in USA FREE. International $10 by air. >>

  • 1952/53 Gordie Howe Parkhurst #88. Get a great card of this Hall of Famer and former Detroit Red Wing. The card has obviously seen better days with numerous creases and rounded corners, but where else can you own this card for such a reasonable price.

    NMT/MNT BV $2,000 I hate these references that have nothing to do with the card being sold!!
