  • Baseball card issue on The People's Court

    Today, I saw an episode of People's Court where the guy sued b/c he bought 4 autographed Yankees cards from a guy on Craig's list. They included Mickey Mantle, DiMaggio, and two others. The price was $450 and then the guy had them authenticated for about another $250. They ended up being fake. The judge gave him the 450 and the 250 back. The guy being sued was given his cards back.
    Favorite baseball players include: Mike Schmidt, Steve Carlton, Kirby Puckett, Pete Rose, Tyler Colvin Mark Appel
    Favorite football players include: Peyton Manning, John Elway, Daunte Culpepper, Mike Alstott, Blake Bortles, and Dri Archer

      I saw the episode of Pawn Stars where that guy brought in a bat signed by Babe Ruth and Christy Mathewson that turned out to be a fake. It was traced back to that autograph dealer busted by the feds in Operation Bullpen. Just goes to show how careful you have to be these days in certain parts of the hobby.

          I'm glad the law sided with the victim. It's a shame that the guy was given back the autographed cards... hopefully he doesn't turn around and screw someone else.
