    Not at that price he isn't going to sell them. $500.00 shipping. Wow.

    You're right about the price...but I'm sure eventually they'll be sold at some price or broken down in smaller chunks and find there way into the wrong hands...
  • Looking at his feed back it looks like he already tried to pass them off as authentic a couple of years ago.

    It has a bid.
  • No returns "excepted". Technically, through poor spelling and grammar, I think he just allowed a return for any reason with his double negative.image

    the cost is $2 per card or 75,000 for all of them

    What does this mean? He's only going to send you 1 card for $2 + the $500 shipping?
    On the bottom he implies a sample for $2.
  • I wonder if he accepts SASE? image

    I don't get it... he has 1 feedback, it's a negative, yet his score is (0) and not (-1), and his percentage is 50%. Maybe it's late and I'm missing something.

    He has one feedback as a seller and one feedback as a buyer (a positive).

    Uggg. I see the eBay default has now changed to show just the feedback as a seller, rather than all feedback. So I clicked on all feedback and there it is. And the funny thing is most people don't bother clicking the feedback of (0) members, assuming they are new. This guy could theoritically rack up an equal amount of negatives and positives, totalling into the thousands, and still remain at (0) if he's clever.
