eBay Garbage

Spotted a Fake Jungle Booster Box for sale on eBay
Could be easy ammo for a scammer in the future :angry:

So brazen!

ā€œ*I’ve just been advised via a message that these could be replica cards but I really don’t have a clue?. I’m a genuine seller (100% feedback so being as honest as I can) please take this into consideration when bidding*ā€

I just love it when people list using ā€˜Not Charizard’ Really helps me out.

Those pics… man I really really wish that jungle jigglypuff and meowth had special releases as holos. There’s so many amazing wotc artworks that would have been insane as holos :slightly_frowning_face:

why upstart grading companies suck, exhibit A: www.ebay.com/itm/charizard-base-set-1999-Rare-Reprint/353119252069?hash=item52378c2e65:g:i7kAAOSwVOte9TpU

I laugh every time I see that in a title haha

That is just poor company management. Next thing is that scammers send bulk and slip one or two fakes in and see how they come out, if graded as real tcg and not ā€customā€ flood gates are open.

This dude needs to buy a vacuum. www.ebay.com/itm/402307599909

First German Birthday Pikachu for sale, finally: www.ebay.de/itm/S-PIKACHU-Geburtstags-Birthday-Blackstar-Promo-Deutsch-German/193519246643 Asking price: 50k euros… :unamused: Sigh.

And that description, lol: ā€œBezahlung per Paypal (Freunde und Familie Zahlung) oder bar bei Abholung (wird bevorzugt).ā€ (which translates to: ā€œPayment by PayPal (Friends and Family payment) or cash on pickup (preferred)ā€ Yeah, that’s going to work if you put it on eBay…

I know these are rare (I’ve heard rumors they were some kind of tournament promo) and this is only the third copy I’ve seen. But 50k and that kind of description makes it belong in this thread. My offer of 1.7k also got auto-declined, which was such a big surprise. /s

Greetz,
Quuador

Do you have a source for this? I know it’s rumor, just want to see where this info came from.

Unfortunately no. A friend and fellow Pikachu collector has one and told me. I wish I had any information or sources, but unfortunately I don’t.

Buying off of eBay has given me the opportunity to encounter some downright vile smells that make me question just how someone can live in the environment they do - a wide variety ranging from years of compressed smoke smell to a complex concoction of mold, dust, and a rancid fart. I’m very seriously considering getting a fume hood to use while opening up eBay packages.

Why must people pollute search results with excessive and dishonest search terms?
Even biggish sellers are doing it :slightly_frowning_face:
www.ebay.com.au/itm/RARE-MINT-CHARIZARD-HOLO-1999-ORIGINAL-BASE-SET-COLLECTION-4-102-PSA-FOIL-CARD/143604049478?hash=item216f77e646%3Ag%3As1gAAOSwgope5%7EAE&LH_BIN=1

ā€œFeatures: First Edition, Holo, Shadowlessā€
ā€œPSAā€

To be honest, that features thing is one I just kind of skip over. It’s super annoying that eBay added that thing and put so many categories to it that are just worthless. If I hit sell similar it’ll copy all the features and if I don’t check on it I’ll put down the wrong things, but I don’t care. 90% of people search by titles that it’s not worth my effort to change the features beyond the name of the card.

Amazingly it sold for £999
as of checking today, It has since been removed from eBay all together like it was never there, however since i was the one that messaged him telling him that they were fake i can still see the auction from within the messages.
