Most of the vintage pack collectors on this board are well aware of the vintage pack counterfeiting that has been going on in the Harrisburg, Pa. area for a few years now. Weeks ago on these boards I exposed ebay pack counterfeiter (tarheels17032) and he immediately stopped listing packs.

Tonight he has resurfaced on ebay selling many vintage wax packs and he is using his "other" ebay user id (codyemma17). Up until now (tarheels17032) has used this second id (codyemma17) exclusively for buying the wrappers & singles necessary for "making" his packs. But recently he has received several negatives with his (tarheels17032) id so he thinks he is smart and has switched ID's to sell.

He has again changed his "item location" to yet a different city--Millersburg, Pa. which is just on the outskirts of Harrisburg. Millersburg is only six miles due west of Elizabethville, Pa. which was a previous location for one of his several ebay ID's.

This guy bounces around the Harrisburg area like a pinball but I'm always on his trail--he can run but he can't hide!!

    Summer. Great job again. Can you give an auction item so we can report him to ebay?

    Here is a link to his current auctions and if you look at his feedback he has recently bought plenty of wrappers! Great catch!

    Same old story as everything he has recently purchased under his (codyemma17) ID has been vintage wrappers, lots containing high-grade singles, and empty wax boxes--business as usual.

    If there is ever a PSA Forum Hall of Fame, summerof68, you have my vote! Rube gets the other!

    Eltoroloco,

    Your reply is most humbling. I might get your vote but Storm most assuredly would be the President of such a Hall.

    Great work. We got to keep this hobby above the board whenever possible.

    Love the new icon--good sense of humor all things considered.

    Summerof68 - thanks again for exposing more of these rip-off artists. Seller sold alot of somewhat expensive boxes recently, and has only 3 displayable feedback as seller and they are for DVD's. I know most of us would not buy any vintage wax from an unproven seller, but there are a some buyers that think they got unbelievable deals on mid-70's basketball boxes with his recent sales.

    Thank you!
