Dodgers collection scans | Brett Butler registry | 1978 Dodgers - straight 9s, homie
wasn't quite sure when her husband died. "He got this card right before he passed away sometime in August." Oh he died sometime between August 1st and 31st but that's not important. Terrible.
<< <i>This listing is such a joke. First off, the username is superimposed onto a picuture of the Mantle card and not directly placed on the case. I love the grammar used in this line, it makes it look like she

Sounds like she and her late husband were close.
Quick, let's all come up with a shopping list
Dodgers collection scans | Brett Butler registry | 1978 Dodgers - straight 9s, homie
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

<< <i>I messaged her and told her that the Mantle with that serial number was mine and I have contacted ebay about it. >>
I can't wait to see her response to that!

Tommy, prove you have the Mantle by showing us that you wiped your ass with it. The cert needs to show through the skid

You do have a way with pictures, Tommy. lol.
yes, yes I am, Ms. '51 Bowman Mantle PSA 8.
other then the iffy feedback and auction verbage; how does the holder look to those who are good at determing a fake holder?
My Registry Sets
This will be interesting to see how this plays out.
she has two hijacked scans.
I just don't understand why people even bother playing games. You pay with PayPal and use a credit card. It just seems like such a waste of time on her part.
some of us are trained to find the hidden truth behind the mask of reality, but i applaud those people who think we're Neanderthal.
now you know why i Watch Listed this, it's a must see.
<< <i>it appears to be a two person bidding war. looks like the seller has a couple of accomplices. >>
the high bidder has at least a minor interest in Sports stuff, but also a knack for shopping in the Home & Garden > Bedding category.....girl chum carrying the torch here?
however, the underbidders seem legit and may be caught in the web.

And her reponse to Tommy's question was "are you crazy?"

"Hi, I am not sure if there is anything that can be done now that the listing has ended, but there was an item sold on eBay tonight that was fraudulent."
"Oh, really?"
"Yes. The seller stole the image from a website, superimposed their user ID on the image, and sold it"
"Can I get the listing ID?"
"Sure, are you ready?"
"Yes."
"OK, it's 140475040945"
And he said very sarcastically, "oh, really? and how do you know this is a stolen image?"
"Because it's my card."
"It's your card?"
"Yes. The image was stolen from Legacy Auction House's website. I was the winner of this exact item and it is right here in front of me."
"...can I get that item number again from you, I had it on my desk and it fell off."
"Sure, it's 140475040945"
"I'm going to get this to the Trust and Safety Department right now Mr. Mullins"
"Thank you, if there is anything else you need from me, like scans of the item, or anything else please have eBay contact me."
no wonder everyone is doing BIN instead of auctions on Ebay.
U gotta feel sorry for the little old lady her hubby dies and now their lifetime investment drops from 21,000 to 6700 wow when thing go bad they really go bad.
since the sky has fallen I think everyone should sell their vintage PSA cards now for 30% of VCP. hurry before the prices drop lower.

Run a card at a 99 cent, no reserve auction! Your wish is Ebay's command!

And how will you provide ebay with any specifically requested scans of this card? What you just did was no better than what the fraudulent seller did. Lied about owning something you dont own.

No, it's not the same and it's not even close to being the same. He wasn't trying to scam anyone out of money and in fact was trying to prevent others from being scammed. You couldn't figure that one out?

I couldn't care less about your semantics...the bottom line is that you should be complimenting the poster for his effort, not criticizing him. Case closed.
<< <i>Then he wouldn't be Gecko. >>
I see...I got sucked in didn't I? LOL
let's see here gecko, there's a person on eBay trying to con people out of thousands of dollars of their hard-earned (or laundered) money for a non-existant item, and you are worried about whether or not a third party concern might concoct a white lie to start what could potentially be a REMOVAL of a thief from the marketplace.
yeah. bad move.
Raw: Tony Gonzalez (low #'d cards, and especially 1/1's) and Steve Young.
without them, we never even get started on a cure.
<< <i>hooray for ethics.

Now lets play devil's advocate here for just a second. Humor me if you will. Lets just ASSUME that this seller was in fact the owner of the card, and now someone like Mullins comes along to torpedo the deal just because he "thinks this listing is BS". When its discovered by EBAY that Mullins lied about owning the card, and furthermore that the seller PROVES to EBAY that she does in fact own the card, then what becomes of Mullins in regard to EBAY? Do you think he should get a lifetime ban after pulling this stunt? Or should he just say "sorry, but I just thought........".
Do you understand my point now? There is NEVER a justification to lie about something like this just to defeat what you SUSPECT is another lie.
now, without creating an argument here, again this is indeed suspicion and it's built completely around suspicions, so here's another question.....if this person is sitting on rare and valuable items from a dead husband's estate and is consulting with an attorney, HTF did this so-called "attorney" not recommend that these valuable and rare items be forwarded to an auction house in favor of a large advance? why pizz it away on eBay? makes no sense.
then, let's go back and examine the underbidders of the Mantle auction, a couple of whom specialized in the purchases of Garden or Hair Care products before this Mantle came along.
suspicions, suspicions, suspicions.....this makes no sense.
ya wanna nail a thief, ya gotta start somewhere.....i think the most glaring mistake made was the suggestion that an attorney was involved. what a joke.
