If I may. It looks (from his past purchases (Robin Yount) that he is getting his stuff low and selling it a little high. He only paid 11 cents (and $1.74 shipping) for the (a?) Yount. If it is one of the same cards it sure as heck been trimmed. He is selling it for 99 cents and 99 cents shipping giving him a profit of... wait for it..... Twenty Four cents........

Or was your question not really a question.... Its been awhile and while some of you I remember being "funny" I dont remember you.

Go get another kool-aid and be happy that no one is on to us for having multiple ID's
(it would be to obvious having the same first name and living in the same town)

My thoughts are:

Wait until this guy has a few feedbacks as a Seller under his belt before bidding!

He mentions PSA grades in a few auctions that I looked at and claims the cards are a PSA 10! (ie. 1989 UD KG Jr)

I agree with AKNOT that the seller's trying to make a quick profit!

The seller just might be cutting a few corners, and possibly a few edges too!

His pictures don't back up his descriptions on many of the cards!

Bottom line: I'd stay away!

No feedback as seller. Most of his picture are just copies of each other.

Don't do it.

The seller may end up with a TON of non-paying bidders.

Folks are bidding on multiple like-cards, perhaps with the intention
of paying for the one that ends the cheapest.

I think the point that Mike was trying to make was that the seller was using the same photo for all 21 of his NRMT Murray rookies.

Run away from bidding on this guy.

$0.11 + $1.74 = $1.85
$0.99 + $0.99 = $1.98

I see only $0.13 profit

i sent a couple of messages to this ass-clown via Ebay.

I dont know anything, but I remember buying a 100 count lot of 82 fleer ripken rookies for 450.00 and a 100 count lot of 82 donruss ripken rookies for 400.00 put them in my store after picking out the best 20 of each lot and running a special in my store for 10.00 each , (what is so wrong with making money?), I bet the company you work for makes money otherwise you would not have a job! ON THE other hand this guy just might be a crook ? who knows, what scares me about his auctions are the low shipping fees (AKA as PWE) , but as I said earlier I DONT KNOW ANYTHING.

PS: I admit openly I have be come addicted to reading and making comments on these boards. (yea yea I know go away and drink another pill and swallow another shot of whiskey or beer or both) I'm outta here (NOT).

So not only am I blind and can't read (see) I am unable to add also. Dman my company makes a profit but they don't misrepresent themselves and appear to attempt to mislead potentional customers.
