Beware of Bundlers!!!!

One of the most psychologically deceptive practices out there...BUNDLING!!!! Frank loves to do it on American Pickers to unsuspecting hoarders...and the phone/cable companies employ this tactic as well.

Lull buyers into thinking they're getting a good deal by bundling multiple services/products into 1...low price!!!!

If I were a thieving, deceptive seller I'd employ this tactic too...as it seems to work!!!!!!

Take this ebay auction...3 beaten t206's worth maybe $20 total...bundled with a fake e90-1 Joe JAckson card...and voila...a $300 bundle!!!!

It's up to $1000 now. What a scam and couple of suckers. Or maybe it's a couple shill bidders running it up to try and make people think that the Jax might be real.

i was watching this auction since last night. that front jax kinda looks real to me...but i always trust when the seller says something is a reprint. that one could be real...but he can just as easily send out a reprint after the auction.

Yeah Quan...the JJ looks decent...but way too fishy esp the way the card is cut at the bottom. Personally I hate that JJ card...and would probably not pay 1K for it in that condition even if it were real!!!!! Maybe only to re-sell!!!!!
