Re: anyone interested in high-end 52 topps Mantle SGC88
This thread was just brought to my attention via a PM so i will list her email address and she can send you the exact information and scans she sent me as I was only trying to put her in touch with possible buyers as the scan sure looked legit to me. So should any of you have questions or concerns feel free to email her… -
Re: Alittle investigation on one of those dealers that gets high grades
This is not a hysterical post, carew4me. If you read the boards regularly, you would have seen my thread in the last few days regarding the activities of "unklbnz", a known card trimmer and scammer. We basically documented how he goes about his business (on both a BGS card, and a PSA card), and he immediately pulled his… -
Re: anyone have any dealings with cardsautosrookiesplus on ebay ?
This may or may not help you. About a month ago a teenager was running a scam out of Niceville, FL. He took a bunch of people's money for expensive cards he did not have. We tracked him down and his father repaid at least some of us. His father said his son was being guided in his scams by a dealer in Fort Lauderdale.… -
Re: Help! Anyone else think there's something wrong with this Reggie auto?
Just thought I would update this one for everyone who took the trouble to help me out. Contrary to my expectations (and I suspect most other people’s) the seller, far from being a scammer, was merely the victim of someone else. He readily forwarded a scan of the card-back which proved the forgery and without prompting… -
Online numismatic fraud
I'm new here, but on this and every other board I've visited, internet, and in particular eBay fraud is a topic of concern and discussion. Here is one message regarding these concerns: "-Hello everyone. I have been kicking the idea around about forming a coalition group to actively work to clean up the numismatic fraud on… -
Good stuff happens here
With all the drama that occurs here every now and then I wanted to post a positive thread - here are my observations of some of the good stuff that happens here in no particular order: Completed the 06 A&G, 07 and 08 Heritage sets with the help of the board, with many cards sent for nothing in return. Some of the SPs I… -
Good Ebay / Bad Ebay
I believe in psychology the term is "enabler". Well, in my humble opinion, Ebay is an enabler, allowing thousands of seamy semi-con artists access to the worlds greatest internet mega-store. Of course, many will argue caveat emptor, let the buyer beware....or argue the benefits of the feedback system as a way of keeping… -
Re: Thanks for the comments...
Burfle— Your thread is an extremely valuable post for all of us. Your resources allow collectors like me to become savvier and avoid the scammers, which is a tremendous value to our hobby. I acquire coins through shows, dealers, and online resources and have encountered several hard-to-detect fakes. For the past several… -
Confederate Currency Authentication Help
Hi all! I'm hoping to get your opinion on a CSA that I am thinking of purchasing...and maybe an idea of approximate value... A guy contacted me with a few pics of a T-35 saying that he wanted to sell it. As most scammers say, he inherited it... but this guy seems more legit. He knows what it is, claims his parents bought… -
Re: ***now
Speaking as a father (and grandfather) who has a deep passion for coins, I think it would be great to expose your son to numismatics, but just don't push him (not that I think you would). My daughter used to accompany me to almost every coin show I did, and while I knew she wasn't into coins to the degree that I was, I…
