Does it seem fishy?

Someone is selling a high end card ($3-500 range). They have not sold anything on eBay since December. They were able to provide a picture of the back of the card though. 500+ feedback 100%.

Thoughts?

I wouldn't be suspicious about no sales for a period of time, but I would be suspicious if they do not provide a frontal scan. Do you have a link?? Maybe you can google the guys ebay user name and see if it has come up in any discussions before.

There is a scan of the front of the card in the auction and he emailed me a copy of the back. I do not want to provide a link quite yet for obvious reasons.

BTW, great idea about googling their name. I will be buying the card now.

How bout a scan of the card after its yours!! lol

Your welcome my friend. I was never a big googler, but my cousin is Google's web evangilist and I have learned alot by reading his blogs over the last couple of years. You would be amazed how fast Google indexes everything on the net.
Example, you want a photographer for a wedding or a contractor for a remodel, you can find anything that has been reviewed or posted on the net.

Good luck!

If anyone cares, this was the card: Always wanted one of these

Nice pick up, you will have a real 1933 Goudey LOU GEHRIG # 160 PSA . I think Gehrig is one of my all time favorite players!!!!

Not sure, thats not how I stumbled onto the card.
