Heh, tisk tisk Terry.

Some bigger sellers use stock photos for non-auto stuff. A simple return here, but pretty funny to see a card so screwed up!

Sad...sad...sad. I am glad I don't buy from any of the big sellers on eBay, and it is because I see way too many horror stories. They definitely outweigh and outnumber the good ones.

It's like 2 cards for the price of one! Okay, parts of 2 cards, but still!

It's from the platinum triumvirate insert set... Find the matching trout that goes along with it to complete the puzzle and you will crack the divinci code.

Your fine, BGS will grade the centering a 9 or 9.5 as they do it all the time.

The worst thing about this is that the title has both the words "gem" and "mint" included.

That's such a blatantly negligent listing that I'd definitely hit the seller with a low DSR or worse. Not that it matters much for someone moving that much volume.

Bigboyd sucks, con artists.... I bought a $300 HIGH BV INSERT REFRACTOR LOT lot last year and the cards I got booked less than half that high bv. Stated they were consignment lots and beyond his control, but these seem to keep getting listed

Don't they insist here over and over that they are not a consignment seller and have not been for a few years now..

I'm just saying, that's what I was told when I called them out on the bulk of the lot being dupes and under listed BV. Maybe the cards were all considered GEM MINT

I avoid their auctions at all costs. I don't even consider them for one second

Maybe in 20 years a buyer won't notice since it is an "INVESTMENT CARD"?

What a joke!

looks cool actually. I'm not familiar with the set design so it does not look terrible.

Easy mistake when you do volume. Ask them to make it right before you get your panties in a wad.
