I just noticed that they started selling singles.

That is always a bad move, period, when your reputation is for selling wax.

All Bowman Originals came in a case like the ones they use for etopps, if you are going to fake this at least
put it in a case!

I guess that's one reason people don't buy from them, any big cards they sell ruins the integrity of their sealed product.

Plus, they tend to be pricier than other companies.

So what are these orignal buybacks supposed to look like? I have 2 from Michael Young. Both 2004 Bowman. One base and one chrome refractor.
Both came in the sealed cases with the sticker that can be seen in front and a hologram on back of the card. There is also a sticker on the backside of the case that says "2005 Bowman Sterling Baseball".

I have 31 2006 Bowman Originals buyback cards, and each has a case that looks like this:

b-6797.jpg



There are three stickers on the case: the one sealing it shut (clear with some sort of writing), and two on the back ("2006 Bowman Originals" and "Certified Autograph Issue"). Additionally, there is a square sticker on the back of the card itself, of the sort that Topps uses on autographed cards.

Of note, I bought three of these cards of Jonny Gomes from sportscardgiant_store (eBay id). Each arrived sans both case and sticker on the card (the residue remained, which stuck the cards to the toploaders). I was able to get a refund, but I do not doubt that three cards with fake autographs took on the cases and stickers from the Gomes cards.

I vaguely remember seeing a Pujols like this in a lot I was bidding on last week. I wonder if this is the same card.

Bluetide_2 on ebay, better known as danielle nigro and george albanese have been faking these Pujols originals for a while now. Stole $1100 from me.

I agree, if you stake your business on selling unsearched wax, it may not be a great idea to also sell the best pulls from that wax!

How do you know if they are real or not, there is a nice 1955 Bowman Reprint of Pujols that I was bidding on.

There have been many thread on this topic.

Fakers are generally dumb and fake cards that never existed. There were so few real Pujols autos inserted that there are are more fakes then real ones.

that pujols (or ones like it) and the alex gordon are probably two of the cards i have read the most faked threads on. neither appear on checklist anywhere and both have signatures that are sketchy at BEST... now the question becomes will cardworld go full throttle at those they acquired the card from?
