When It Is Too Good To Be True: 1st Ed Base Scam

My older brother who is 30 years old who’s never collect Pokémon ever in his life paid $1000 for all these cards below. He found a local guy on “offer up”.
Unbelievable lol Had to share this with everyone, blew my mind away. Happy Monday boys !! Keep on hunting !!

You’d think a guy with recent cert # 1st ed cards would know the value of these…maybe they were stolen. Or just a good deal idk good find

And so the legend of the unicorn continues. They do exist, they are just very rare. Amazing find!

Yes that was a nice find. Yeah we would hope they were not stolen lol :/. Sometimes people just want to move fast and get $$ or just do not have the patience or care to wait for the actual value. Their loss :grin:

Wait… didn’t a bunch of auctions that ended on Ebay recently have that same picture?

No bro. Stupid.

Sketchy to me.

Does he actually have them in hand yet?

You sir are correct. Someone needs to apologize for calling you stupid.

Oh wow. That’s strange.
I’ll take a picture tonight with my face in the cards showing it’s the exact cards.

Put your watch and your car in the picture too. It will go well with your latest pick up.

Everyday it’s just another fickle post where you make shit up.

That picture is from a recently ended listing:

rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F332829599482

Why are you always lying?

I’m not lying.
I’ll show you tonight. At work now. My brother has these cards lol. I will take a picture with my face tonight showing same cards

He said he has them in hand and will post with his face and the cards… Could be a case where they are either stolen or the seller has just resorted to scamming and doesn’t plan to ship the ones that sold on ebay and sold them in person as well.

Yeh some people can be so stupid.

On the subject of insane deals, I’m offering this card rn at this price PayPal F&F only. Hmu

See picture.
He actually in fact won the auction.
Just drove to his work place to get this picture.
He did purchase other cards from offer up for 1000. This was different. That was my mistake.
But my brother won this action and paid.
Sorry for the confusion. But no , I do not lie. This was a miscommunication on my part fellas. I will take some heat for this one.
