Is this one of Kevin Burge's ebay ids - browneyes78tc?

Auto looks fake

...and he seems to have a lot of these including Eli & Peyton Manning, Joe Montana, Ben Roethlisberger, and a BUNCH of other players. The low feedback and the fact that the seller is out of North Carolina made me avoid bidding. It's fishy to me.

    Here's what his auto looked like on another 2005 Topps insert. The image is from Beckett's website, so sorry it is small. Notice the writing for "Happy 50th"...also, this is what his autograph is supposed to look like.

    Compare the "HAPPY 50TH" on the first Favre (for sale by browneyes78tc) and then to the "Happy 50th" on the one listed on Beckett's site.

    Then compare them both to the Tom Brady that browneyes78tc is also selling:

    Is it just me, or does that picture of Tom Brady look like Tiger Woods with a helmet on?

    I dont know with 100% certainty but the location in the auction "Statesville" is 5-10 minutes north of where Burge lives. I would say it is.

    This is getting ridiculous, how does one even know what to buy anymore? If that's the case with this eBay ID, sheesh,what's it going to take to stop this guy? I looked over the other items and all of the Happy 50th look the same. There are some other cards mixed in there to make it all seem legit.

    Dollars for donuts it's someone connected to him. I googled the email address listed on one of the ID's currentls listings, and found this:

    HOLIDAY GIFT WRAPPING - SimpleAd FOR MORE INFORMATION YOU MAY CONTACT ME VIA EMAIL: Lawchic24@yahoo.com (personal # deleted). I am in the mooresville area, but will travel within ...
    simplead.com/ad/24125 - Cached

    Pretty certain Burge is in Mooresville.
    Who is Rober Maris?
