[josh3302]

Looking to buy an A-Rod Auto under $100 for my 9 year old brother for his birthday. He would love this. Is it real or fake though

Doesn't Topps put "Topps" tamper-proof stickers on their buybacks like that? Looks aftermarket, but I steer clear of any of those anyway.

There is a 98 BC /4 on the checklist, but the sticker looks suspect to me.

How about this? [ebay:8g3x2ms0]280381000114[/ebay:8g3x2ms0]

Hope he doesn't have his heart set on it though, I'll bet it ends around $130-140 even though it is suspect. And after reading this sellers pitch within the auction, he's probably unwittingly selling it for someone else.

Why not just get him a non-buy back one ?

I would not touch a "buyback" with a 10 foot pole...

So lets get this correct your 9 year old brother wants an arod auto but it must be a buyback? And why would you create competition by bumping a topic with under 10 mins? Not to mention there are several real arod autos for under a 100$ right now on ebay. Very odd.

100% fake. Topps don't use those hologram sticker to protect their buyback holder.
