LOL, I never fell for one of those, but they have been around for years. I remember how appealing they looked when my son and I first started collecting. Luckily, we're not huge gamlers, and all auctions like that look like a gamble to us. Buyer beware. Unfortunately, there are alot of people that fall for those scams.

"Selling" her ex-husbands cards since 2010? Or do all wives just ship their cards do this one hub for the lead chick to sell off?

Any way we can get eBay to ban this fool selling these auctions?

Not only is it completely foolish and a flat out lie, they are SCAMMING.

Every auction has a shill bid by a member with (2) feedback.

Check it out, all 24 pages of this scumbag's auctions ... all bumped up to $75 or so.


Absolutely awful this scum is getting away from this. Probably laughing in his basement as people pay $75 for a bunch of trash as he just takes new angled pictures for each auction then writes some wacky title to trick some fool.



I get it, it's fools selling to fools ... but still .... morally, it's very wrong .... this guy should be OFF eBay!!!

And what's the deal with this?

eBay Feedback Profile for 6912dragster (http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&ftab=AllFeedback&userid=6912dragster&iid=-1&de=off&items=25&interval=0&mPg=41)

Check out the feedback...hundreds of these auctions won? BAH!


What a shady scam going on...I can't imagine these lots even have any value to them ... I am astonished how some people are leaving positive feedback. I'm curious to purchase one just to see the *REAL* junk that is being given out in these!

I like how they were listing the players, all spelled correctly and then all of a sudden it seemed like english was foreign to them, and figured they better start spelling some wrong to make it more convincing, and started spelling every name wrong, even the easy ones haha.

How are box breaks banned on ebay but this is allowed? This is fraud at its finest. Probably a 300 lb man typing up those auctions...Im tempted to buy one and keep returning it just to be a pain in the ass.

This also reminds me of the Chase the Mantle or Ruth boasters at Walmart. How come we never hear of anyone hitting those? I would think the company would want to publicize that to sell more boxes....

I also think he has someone (himself on a shadow account) clicking on the listing non-stop because it ALWAYS appears on my "recommended for you" list of auctions.

These auctions are all hilarious...If a woman was really auctioning off their exhusbands card collection, she would prob. take a picture of all the boxes and say something like "here are a bunch of cards, a lot of them look like the player signed there name on them, some of them have fabric on them. Get these out of my hands, I dont want them" and there would be no scanned pictures, and the auction would be a flat out gamble like buying a storage locker!

At first I thought they were funny, but then I realized it's just some slob scumbag suckering in people to buy his crap...and making GOOD money off of suckers.

Deceitful and a shame to the hobby, he needs to be off eBay with this shady practice!
