    Baseball card question

    I think that it all depends on the numbering. If the base set contains numbers 1-300, for example, and the cards fall in that range, then they are a subset. But if they have their own numbering system, then they are an insert set. I'm sure there is some grey area, but that's how I would define it.

    Counterfeiter lists phone number on eBay

    Thanks, but I'll get my legal advice from someone who actually knows what the definition of slander is. You want proof? It's called using your eyeballs, knowledge and logic. I am getting involved by contacting eBay and the bidders. I feel that approach will get more results than contacting...

    Counterfeiter lists phone number on eBay

    Did I ever say that pack pulled auto and IP autos look the same? How's this and this and this for comparison. Non are PSA DNA, but they look a lot closer to his pack-pulled stuff, and seem like more reputable sources. Good guesswork. I know that it's fake because it is obvious. I haven't ever...

    Counterfeiter lists phone number on eBay

    Maybe he's posting a number to add credibility, thinking that most people will figure "who would post their phone number if they are selling fake stuff?" Then, if someone calls, he can just say "I bought it from a guy who bought it from another guy." I'm guessing that you're trying to trick...

    Counterfeiter lists phone number on eBay

    Wow... there sure are a lot of apologists for this guy. I feel sorry for your autograph collections if you can't see that these are fake. These were all signed within the past 2-3 years, as opposed to an early Jeter signature, and on one of his auctions, two players weren't even on the team at...

    Counterfeiter lists phone number on eBay

    Look at his other items for sale/items sold in the past- They are all the same. If this guy is the "victim" of fake autographs, he must have bought a bunch of them at once. Secondly, look at his autographs on other items, too. Many of them appear to be fake, not just Shipley's. Just because he...

    Counterfeiter lists phone number on eBay

    So I was looking for Longhorns stuff on the Bay, and I ran across items from this seller. It's pretty clear to me that he is a counterfeiter. The funny thing is, he lists his phone number in the item description. I've got half a mind to call him and cuss him out, but so far I've just been...

    Player Collection Question

    I would keep it in mine. It's really up to the individual. Some people even collect cards of other players if their player is featured on it (e.g. being tagged out). As far as keeping track of how many of their cards you have, though, I wouldn't include it because it's listed as a TC and the...

    Sweet Spot Auto Fading?

    Does this mean that sticker autos might actually be the way to go as opposed to on-card autos? Cardboard seems like it would absorb ink more than a plastic-based sticker.

    why do ebay buyers do this to sellers?

    I think you will see less of this now that eBay will be taking a cut of your shipping as well... a lot of people probably did this to get around some of the eBay final value fees, but if the final value fee will now include shipping, what's the point of trying to make money on the shipping?

    1982 Topps Blackless Ozzie Smith and others...

    Wow. $78 for a Mickey Hatcher card. Who'da thunk it. I honestly had never heard of this error before (or, if I did, forgot about it.) If I saw these sitting in a box at a garage sale I would've not even noticed the missing signature and would have just thought they were commons, thus missing...

    Another guy making his own 1/1 cards on Ebay

    Has anybody reported this guy to eBay? I try to report it whenever I see an obvious fake... sometimes it feels like eBay doesn't care because I have seen the same guy continue to sell the same thing even after I've reported him several times, but hopefully if enough people report fakes they will...

    Michael Jordan BGS 10 RC on ebay

    Is it just me, or does the back seem a little off-center L/R? I guess it's still a nice card though :)

    Review 09 Topps Magic Football

    I like this set... although that may be because the only football cards I collect are of players in Texas unis :) Any Longhorns stuff?

    Topps has MLB Exclusive for 2010?

    "The league also believes that one cardmaker can end the confusion of competitors selling multiple card series in hobby shops and big-box stores." Yeah, there may only be one company making baseball cards, but how many different lines is Topps going to produce? My guess is around 20.
