a modern VG card...EBAY UPDATE included

i ranted on the beckett board (my new hangout ) but thought i should relay the news to my fc family here also. how hard is it to ship for these modern crap seller? i'm trying to embrace the shiny goodness but seems like they're pushing me away!

...and we probably need to open another paypal dispute

Quan,

Come back from the darkside.

too late jeff. i'm working backward, sell your valuable prewars and buy worthless modern cards. sounds like a plan!

Seems fitting for an A-rod card, now just rip it in half and you will have a real gem on your hands !! Now if that was a Mauer card it would be a true tragedy !!!!!!!!!!!

Inject a little "boli" into it and watch the crease go right away.

gotta give some props to ebay, as a buyer you're tightly protected now. seller refused to do anything and didn't even reply. i filed a case with ebay...after giving seller a week they went ahead and sent me a UPS label. i dropped the card in the mail back to the seller. once it's confirmed delivered i got my money back with the shipping. i know 2nd hand of a guy who got ripped off for a $7500 watch (german seller sent him some rocks). ebay also got his full money back within a week.

cliffnotes/lesson: go ahead and gamble up all on those questionable/reprint cards on ebay. in case it's not legit you're covered up the ying yang

extra shiny!

How many years apart are the Arod autos in your post, amazing how quickly they change styles or is one a roid auto and other post roid ?

1993 and 2000. seems like the 18yo was more attentive with his whole name while the 2000 spoiled superstar took some shortcuts. 2 completely different signatures. I love how the old timers were very careful to be ornate and spell out their whole names

I wasn't sure if that was a retro or real 93 card, that has to be one of his better cards ! The 2000 auto looks more like Cal Ripken than Arod !
