Anyone know the ebay card seller, izzidizzy? I bought a

1970 Topps Nolan Ryan card from him
LINK

and have received the card. The card is a really thick card board and it is extremely glossy for a 38 year old card. Do the 1970 Topps cards have a greater rigidity to them than...lets say...they 1976 Topps cards? Has that card had a reprint or been counterfeited alot?

Here is his picture.....image

I could do a scan, but it looks fine...just the thickness and gloss do not match up imo.

Comments

  • I have a ton of '70 commons and I don't remember them every feeling any thicker than any other card. And they surely aren't significantly glossy either.

    **edited, wrong year typed, I got '71's on the brain, lol.

    Card should be the same general thickness as other cards from that time ('76).

    Seller dosen't have great feedback (97.0%) so it could be something different.

    If is glossy like a Topps Tiffany set then something is wrong.

    I've seen Pete Rose cards from 1970 excatly the way you describe. But on the back of each Rose card the word "reprint" did appear in fine print

  • On ebay, how do I sort by negative reviews only? Nothing in these reviews mention anything about counterfeit / reprint cards though.

    Often, EBAY sellers who invoke God in their listings are doing Satan's work.

    If the card looks/feels wrong, I'd file a PayPal SNAD right away. The seller's
    stars have him right on the edge of taking a forced vacation.
