Anyone deal with eBay seller schillingbd?

They are selling a bunch of unopened packs, some of which are graded by GAI. They also have an unopened 1969 Topps rack pack that doesn't look right. The header card says "3 10 cent packs" but the cards appear loose in each cell (especially in the picture of the back of the pack). The pack also looks way too clean. Just wondering 'cause the feedback is excellent and they seem to have nice items.

    He's auctioning off a veritable plethora of bogus unopened--grocery cellos, 80-81 BKB tray, 69 rack that was shrinkwrapped in '09 instead of '69..

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Thanks. I was interested in the 2 cello lot from 1978-79 (Jack Morris top and Winfield horribly off center top) but after seeing some questionable stuff (like that '69 rack), I think staying away is the safest bet.

    yeah, I called his hand on the 1970 cello he is selling. I mentioned that 12 card cellos weren't Topps-issued and that I bet the serial started with 102. Gave him the speech about GAI's celebrated "oops period". He updated the auction to add the serial, which I thought was a nice deflection of the truth.

    A clever way to appeal only to those bidders who have no idead about these packs being fake.

    Yep, he uses private feedback, and he's also running it as a private auction - good way to hide his namesake. Why does Ebay even allow private feedback?

    Amazing how stupid many Ebay buyers are. I started to say "uninformed", but "stupid" seems more accurate. The 1970 grocery cello (12 cards) he had sold for $152, roughly 40% of what a legit 33 card cello would sell for. So, even if we assume the cards are in good shape, someone just paid a premium on a per-card basis for the privilege of owning that thing.
