What are these sellers thinking?!

Looking over Ebay last night for a Ripken auto and found a listing with no pic but title stated 'a little damaged'. I sent him a message and asked for a pic and he sent me one (at bottom of thread). I also went through his other listings and found these-

36 Jersey Cards-A bargain at $99.99
Shipping charge


15 Rookie cards for a penny!!

WOW, what a deal




That Nick Swisher Letterman auto you've been looking for is just a penny!

LowLow Shipping

Thought some of you would get a chuckle. I played with the photo with an editor and it appears that a big chunk of the card is gone. I have asked him to send me a better pic..............

Original pic he sent-

Same pic edited-am I seeing things or is part of the card missing?
Follow the bottom edge from right to left. Sorry it's so small.

Another seller has a David Wright 'auto' up. I sent a message to this one as well mentioning it's a 2002 vs 2001, facsimile vs authentic auto. Very courteous reply stating that 'yes, the card is from 2002 but the picture of him is from 2001' and so on.

they are probably hoping the buyer does not see the shipping commitment and hoping to trick them!

I especially like the 'we usually dhip within 15 days of receiving cleared payment.'

By bumping up the S&H, and I mean way up, he's trying to avoid eBay fees and still make a nice profit.
