Ebay scam?????

Not sure what this is, theres like 20 or so on the Bay right now. The only thing I can think of is that some company bought 1 gamer of Sids and 1 gamer of Ovi's and cut it all up to make these. Put different pics on all the cards and viola 1/1. If their not GU it's just striaght up fraud.

If it's legit fine but it just seems real fishy!

those started showing up about 2 months ago, i'm only collect Ovi, so I always see them, most ppl have stayed away from them, usually you can win them for like 5 bucks, you'll notice that some ppl have bought them and are selling them for like 50 or best offer, as there not licensed or by ITG, I just stayed away, figure it was safer that way

Just wondering if anyone knew the whole story....def staying away from them....LOL

[BRodgers]

They actualy do all sports. They have had Mantle\Jeter duals, mj\lebron duals. They are all bs.

So basically they're a fraud. That's why I'm extremely careful when looking at things on the bay.

Ive seen those as well. Only for Howes and Gretzkys or Howes and Orrs type deal. I decided to stay away. They dual only went for $50 canadian, which doesnt make sense. I also think its complete BS. The cards are so low grade looking, the images are distorted and out of shape on some of the pics, looks like low end dumpster junk.

It's not fraud though if they actually are GU jersies! Not sayin I'm gonna grab one, just that it's low quality instead of straight up illegal!

[TheRussianRocket]

I think you should stay away from those... definitely BS in my opinion

[30ranfordfan]

It looks VERY fishy to me. I don't know a thing about the company..... but I would ask this: Does any Sid or AO GU card sell that cheap? When you combine the best two players in the league..... those prices are even more crazy.

If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

I'd also like to point out - Upper Deck is the only licenced manufacturer of NHL trading cards (as we've all discussed countless times). Those cards, clearly not made by Upper Deck, use NHL logos. If they're using NHL logos illegally, I'm going to guess they didn't pay Sid or AO for the use of their photos either.

I'd stay away.
