SCAM - reliable_clothing: 1st Ed Base Set Booster Pack

Hi Everyone!

Why not start off my first post with a bang?

I’m considering buying this booster pack, and to my eye, it looks like a legit pack.

The seller is unaware of fake booster packs, so I’m a bit on edge, but it might just be that it’s not their expertise.

Any expertise and advice you can offer is greatly appreciated!

The pack looks legit.

However, if the seller is reliable_clothing I would personally pass. One of our members @jcincy101 has had problems with that seller recently.
Oops… too slow by a few seconds. :grin:

Oh thanks guys! I like how you guys knew without me even giving you the link!

UPDATE:

eBay emailed me. This is almost certainly a scam. Stay away from this seller.

This seller currently has two listings for a psa 9 1st edition base charizard with the same cert number for both, steer clear of them.

That’s not the problem.

The problem is that the cert # is invalid.

It’s invalid because he took the picture from this sold listing and edited out the ‘8’ at the end.

Why would you do that unless you’re a POS scammer?

Ah good catch, I didn’t notice it. Hopefully no one gets hosed by this person…

I paid 2k for a PSA 10 skyridge charizard last night and the buyer declined the cancel it after many things led me to believe he was a scammer after… I posted it on IG and at least 4 other people messaged me saying they bought the same card from him. Not to mention as soon as I bought it he relisted the item a few minutes after as well lol. I emailed paypal and ebay and opened a paypal case against him but unfortunately can’t call because I’m out of the country for a week. I’d advise to call ebay though if you’ve already bought from this seller. Oh and he also completely removed the listing for the charizard so he can’t even update tracking and it shows the listing doesn’t exist…
