Hello Experts -
Anyone have any thoughts on this? Look legit?

Haven't contacted him yet. The No phone calls, PayPal only thing makes me suspicious.

    Has to be a scam. He has it listed under other cities (some have been flagged for removal).

    General rule of thumb - don't buy $15k cards on craigslist.

    Aha! Nevermind. I see it at NYC and Philadelphia. Flagged the L.A. one. Jerks. Never ends.

    He wrote me right back saying too many flakes so he won't meet up with anyone. Let him know that I reported him to IC3 and good luck with his jail time.

    Every one of the CL posts should be flagged...

    Its a scam... 98% sure.

    The cards are known as "Craigslist cards" and are fake cards in fake PSA slabs and to the untrained eye look OK even in person.

    Many have lost thousands of $$ on this scam, and now some are showing on eBay too (sometimes being sold by the new owners who dont know their item is a fake, yet)

    here is a link to the first story on them when it broke a couple years back (1952T Mantles are also known)

    Net54.......PSA counterfeit cards!!! Beware
