Haha what a great description:

2012 Prime Signatures




Robert Griffin III - 1/1 Rookie Auto Logo Patch / Shield

Hard Signed - On Card - BEAUTIFUL SHIELD - Player Used Memorabilia




THIS IS ABSOLUTELY IT RIGHT HERE. WITHOUT QUESTION, HANDS DOWN, THE ABSOLUTE MOTHERLOAD OF RG3 CARDS!!!!!!




This is not a Baylor card, this is not a sticker auto on a stamped 1/1 superfractor, this is the Nike NFL LOGO SHIELD from RG3's Jersey, and his beautiful, all-on-card, hard signed autograph - pictured in his LICENSED NFL UNIFORM!




Unbelievable card, without question one of a kind, and - in case the aforementioned is not enough - STAMPED, TRUE 1/1. Only one on EARTH. This is the quintessential RG3 masterpiece collectible.




*************

PLEASE READ BEFORE OFFERING OR PURCHASING:




IN THE INTEREST OF FULL DISCLOSURE, PHOTOS OF ANY AND ALL IMPERFECTIONS ON THE CARD (no matter how small or minute) HAVE BEEN PHOTOGRAPHED AND POSTED IN THIS AUCTION. THE LAST 2 PICTURES (11 AND 12) SHOW THE IMPERFECTIONS AS CLEAR AS I COULD POSSIBLY MAKE THEM.




Please notice the slight edge touch in the bottom right quadrant of the card, underneath the shield and name area. Second, please notice the slight dimple near the "Prime Signatures" Stamp in the top right quadrant of the card. The dimple is very difficult to see with the naked eye unless the card is held at a specific angle. I have put a light glare on the card to accent the dimple.




These are the ONLY visible imperfections, the rest of the card is closely scanned and photographed for your viewing discretion. I am not a grader, please exercise due dillgence.




*************

Please see the scan(s) above for the condition of the card as stated. I pulled this card personally from Sports Cards Plus in San Antonio, TX and the card went straight from the box into a one touch holder. It has not been handled by any hands other than mine. This pull was featured in the Panini America Blog as well. I am the first owner, this card is beyond stunning - just breathtaking.

El Oh El at seller stating.....

Due to the high price of this item and the nature of the sports card industry, there are absolutely, positively NO RETURNS ON THIS CARD WHATSOEVER. Sorry, but nobody is going to get buyer's remorse here!

Um OK....Sure....if you want to believe that. Good Luck

For everyone's comfort, safety, and insurance, I will film the packaging and delivery of this card all the way into the hands of whichever third party delivery service is utilized. This will be a continuous shot, with the card / package never leaving the view of the camera. This will 100% ensure the condition of the card, and fully confirm shipping. This video will be uploaded to YouTube for storage.

I'm wondering how long his battery will last and how he is going to fit in the mailbox or Fed Ex Box. I hope the part of the plane he is in with the mail is pressurized or else he won't make it. My Camera battery only lasts 2 hours. Never make it for the 24-38 hours it will take for delivery

Payment is due INSTANTLY upon purchase. There is absolutely no way this card will be bought and not paid for - per eBay settings, payment is due instantly upon purchase, otherwise you can not buy the item.

I believe Instant Payment is applicable with BIN. Not BO. Wonder how he will handle that.

Sweet card but for the life of me I just don't understand how people with high FB in Ebay have no clue how it works.

Go back and reread what he says, he is not filming the delivery of the card to the buyer, just the Post office, or whoever he has shipping it.

Well, it doesn't hurt to add that in there. IMO it serves as a good deterrent for those looking to scam. I'd think more than twice before messing with someone that covers all their bases like he does (even if those bases are irrelevant).

Agreed in the case of your average nose picking window licking scammer.

BUT for someone who knows the ins and outs they can buy it.
Send it to BGS on a 1 day turn with a minimum of 9.5. Not get that grade and return it.

Or they can buy it on spec because they have a deep pocketed Griffin buyer who flakes and still return it.

Good for him though as he put a lot of thought into the description.

State the card is NM-NMT condition which is accurate, post clear scans with a dark background and let it roll. Long descriptions like that turn me away fast.

Yeah but at that point with that much money on the line you could probably take PP/ebay to real court and have them forced to give your money back if you actually have concrete evidence.

On card like that you ship it adult signature restricted confirmation, only the person on the label can sign for it. Again the buyer could say, sorry did not get the card and the burden of proof would fall on the seller, but the buyer IMO would have to explain why he signed for a package with no card in it

Always wondered if getting a card of this value notarized would be any value to the seller vs video taping and all that stuff if a buyer tried to pull a fast one???

So by pointing out things that are in direct conflict with the Ebay TOS is negative? And I know he's a member here. What does that have to do with anything.

Bottom line is that is he takes a Best offer of $9,000 he cannot force the buyer to pay INSTANTLY. The buyer will have 8 days minimum.
