This makes me sick!!

Link to a Mantle graded 10 Rgs
The seller only has Mickey Mouse slabs on all his vintage cards. The Fgs gem Mantle is the same company that slabbed a Derek Jeter auto?? This guy actually gets away with selling this garbage for crazy amounts. By studying his feedback score. He has bought tons of Rickey Henderson Rookies this past month that are all in Vg to Excellent condition and I'm pretty sure who I know who he is sending them to Pca, Fgs, or Rgs. I came across his Ebay id by looking for a 1978 Molitor I noticed that it was graded a nine by Pca image only four grades off lol it was extremely O/c... so I sent him an offer of $5.00 free shipping. I noticed that the card just sold for $50.00 with free shipping lol. By looking at his feedback he is making tons of money off suckering the sheep into his garbage. As collectors we need to get the word across about these Mickey Mouse grading companies. I know this has been discussed on here a million times but this is ridiculous check out this sellers inventory. Do you guys think that Ebay will ever ban the selling of this off the wall grading companies ?

    No need to worry about things that really don't concern you.

    When I say 'you' I don't mean anyone specifically just 'us' in general.

    The ebay world is filled with fakers, scammers and scum.

    Good for you.

    The mickey mouse companies bother me too. However, Ebay would never ban cards from any grading company, nor should they. Its not Ebay's responsibility to determine how accurate or inaccurate a company grades its cards. Its up to collector's to figure out that the companies you mentioned above produce worthless slabs. If a buyer doesn't do their homework on what they're buying, they have no one to blame but themselves.

  • Well, at least the Jeter autograph is good.

    Actually ebay has a page where they state that only BGS, PSA SGC and maybe GAI are acceptable graders.

    Yes it is up to potential buyers to know what they are buying. In this case the seller clearly states in his description that

    the card has flaws.

    Not sure why anyone is up in arms over this auction.

    One other point the company in question is NOT FGS but RGS.

    FGS at times has pretty good stuff in its holders.

    I have bought some mid grade 55 topps that after I cracked them out graded at PSA.

    Good for you.
  • I placed a bid on the 1978 molitor yesterday. I went back to place a bid on a 1965 Topps Clemente for $20 that is graded 9+ and its a Vg/ex .. Well it looks like the seller blocked my account because I offer True Market value for vg/ex and Ex cards.... Oh well !
