How many red flags can you identify?

Scammer!

What a joke.

Relist

Some sucker already fell for it to the tune of $6,000. NOBODY would legitimately sell all of those cards in that condition at those prices.

Allen · August 26, 2007 8:17AM

So did he ship the guy reprints or commons or what?

WinPitcher · August 26, 2007 8:37AM

the auction is still goin on, no one has bid thus far.

Let's see if I get them all:

1. No paypal.

2. Won't allow inspection and/or pick up.

3. Doesn't identify his city and state.

4. Scans look stolen.

5. Won't send additional scans (his time is precious).

Oh yeah, and best of all:

6. Already scammed someone else on nearly the identical auction.

vintagetoppsguy · August 26, 2007 9:11AM

Funny how he listed his city and state in previous auctions, but decided to remove it from this auction. Also funny how he accepted PayPal on previous auctions, but no longer accepts it because of "previous fraud."

Previous fraud on what? One of his $.01 items???

I love this feedback that was left for him on July 4th, 2001:

<< Avoid this JERK, and his NASTY Wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >>

bigred1 · August 26, 2007 9:15AM

Sounds like an instance in which everyone with sense should listen to the guy he scammed and stay away.

<< Due to previous paypal fraud i cannot accept paypal on this auction. >>

Fraud on who's part??

This is a great time saver! I'm going to create a new template for all of my auctions, starting bid will be $199.00:
Up for auction is a sports card. I don't have time to waste on you people, so don't bother me with questions about which sport, which player, which company & year, or condition (assume Fair & you won't be disappointed). And don't even THINK about asking for scans, I have better things to do. I accept payment only in cash delivered by Loomis Fargo. Bid early and bid often!

What an idiot...

stevek · August 26, 2007 11:25AM

Scans actually look legit and he does offer pickup. Some of the cards look like reprints to me - classic scam...mix in legit cards with reprints. No suckers bit on it...this time.

oops - you're right! I read that quickly and scanned by the "not" - LOL

JohnnyD · August 27, 2007 5:26AM

If I can I think I am going to send a message to the winner letting him know a bunch of people are curious about what he actually receives...

JohnnyD · August 27, 2007 5:27AM

Disregard that last.....everyone was smart enough to stay away from this auction....

EdnaPurviance · August 27, 2007 9:11PM

RELISTED!!

Unbelievable.

Who in the world would bid on this???

Let's save some poor unknowing soul from losing their money by setting up a new account and winning the lot. Who wants to step up for this one??

Blackie · August 28, 2007 12:04AM

Thats sad.........seems like they need to have a review board on ebay to head off crap like this before it hits the world. Its just sad...........

digicat · August 28, 2007 1:36AM

This feedback says it alll...

Scam auction...
**SCAMMER** Ships junk, claims tampering & won't refund or file w UPS. **AVOID** the7clarks ( 653) Jul-20-07 11:16

EdnaPurviance · August 28, 2007 1:40AM

MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, WE NEED TO PUNISH THAT SELLER!

Blackie · August 28, 2007 1:45AM

No better let ebay do it..... He will get caught. What needs to happen is that ebay take down this auction and restrict the seller from selling. Im sure they have his contact number, etc.

zep33 · August 28, 2007 1:54AM

I reported it the other day and obviously ebay did nothing about it

jamesryanbell · August 28, 2007 2:15AM

<< MEMBERS OF THE BOARD, WE NEED TO PUNISH THAT SELLER! >>

We need to make about 20 bogus accounts and bid 1,000,000,000 every time he lists it, with no intention of buying it.

LOL

EdnaPurviance · August 30, 2007 12:46PM

Somebody won the auction. Hope it's just someone messing around with the seller.
