Some things are too good to be true...

Tomlinson21RB · Jan 8, 2009

Well, I thought I had a huge steal on my hands for a card thats nearly impossible to track down. It's been near the top of my want list for quite some time now, and I thought I had it. A couple days ago I won the auction for these three cards:

Notice the blue tint to the F/X card. I took a chance hoping it was in fact the blue version (/25). I was so happy today when I opened the package to find out it was, but then I notice the whole top right is bent and the front of the card is peeling in this area. Oh well, I guess it will have to be a place holder and hope that one in decent condition shows up.

The middle card looks like Miggy...

I still haven't figured out who it is, but it definitely is not Hanley.

I'll also add that I won the lot for 3.99 dlvd, so it's not like I'm out a whole lot on it.

Are you going to drop a "not as described" neg on the seller?

I believe the card in the middle actually depicts Renyel Pinto.

I'm really not sure. Now that I look at it you can kind of see the bend. At the same time it was a card that is far more rare than the seller knew. He also incorrectly labeled the '52 chrome as a refractor in the auction. Right now I'm thinking I just won't leave feedback and will email the seller letting him know the problem I had with the sale.

Has anyone ever actually proven that the Blues are SP'd?

It kind of isn't worth it for 4 dollars. Don't give that scum the satisfaction. If he comes back and says, "Hey, why didn't you leave feedback?" Then, you tell him how you feel! lol

I don't think so, but I've seen exactly one of each of Hanley since the release (he has 2 cards in the set). So I would assume they are SP'd, but I can't say if it is to 25. I would guess it is less than 50 because the reds pop up fairly often, but maybe not because there might be sellers out there that don't even know they have them.
