    '48/'49 Leaf...Need help with some tips on spotting reprints

    On a lot of cards the jersey color is the same as the border on originals (like the Cracker Jack sets) such as my Jackie Robinson rookie... On some fakes, the jersey is a little darker than the border, such as this one that someone bid $250 on. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1948-Leaf-79-Ja ...

    I'm not positive, but yes, i think so. What I don't get is if the owner of the card or PSA chooses whether to grade it as 8 OC or just a 6.

    eBay buyer question

    One of my items just ended on eBay. I put it at a high starting price and wasn't sure if anyone would bid. 1 person did. My concern is that they've been a member since 2004 and they haven't ever bought anything. (no feedback) Should I be worried about a non-paying bidder or is this common...

    Wet Sheet Transfer? Question...

    I don't know if this happens with modern cards or just older ones but I noticed a few 1948 Leafs and a t206 that are "wet sheet transferred", where the font from the back is shown on the front. Does this decrease the value of the card at all? Or raise it? or does it just stay the same? Thanks...

    Picked up a 1933 Goudey Ruth!

    I also got a 1909 T206 Mathewson, but i don't have scans of that now. They're both pretty beat up, but I like old cards like that. And I got a great deal on them. But here's the Ruth :

    New poster would like some advice with a 56 Topps set

    yeah, you should probably buy all of them already graded, because like darren said it'll cost twice as much to get the commons graded than what you paid for it and you never know what grade it might get. Also, you wouldn't want to take any chances with a card being altered or trimmed, so it's...
