    with a guy withazero, it hard to tell, i guess we all started out at zero once, but zeros can take ya for a ride to,the old time card experts can tell ya if they are real or not

    Not hard for me to draw an opinion.....

    Every card has a different background - green, black, none showing, 1 tilted, 1 perfectly cropped, etc.

    High priced cards all in different holders - top load, semi rigid, etc

    Not likely for someone scanning a few cards in a row to sale to do them all completely different.

    Can't see a normal person doing that - my guess is he's simply swiped the images from other ebayers, google images, etc.

    I'm looking for a RC Ryan, looked to good to be true.

    I hope no one falls for it!!

    I saw the poor guy that recently bought all those RC cards, Gretzgy, Jordan, etc. He got burnt.

    The kiss of death:

    A "0" member selling electronic AND baseballcards.

    Scam.

    I think he has all those cards. Too bad they're counterfeits. I think he's mixing it up with the different holders and backgrounds. None of the cards look right- the collors are too vibrant, the edges too sharp, etc....

    Anyone who'd sent this clown any money is just begging to be screwed, IMO. Unfortunately, the "bargain" price appeal is sometimes to appealing to resist.

    He has stolen the scans from another seller who sold these last week. CCburgesstireinc. was the guys ebayID and he sold the very same cards. Take a look....exact.

    Oh, then it's probably the same guy. Usually people who steal scans use ones of real cards.
