[SCANDAL ALERT]: Is eBay’s Big Shot Seller Rick Probstein Dealing in Phony Cards? The Curious Case of Xavier Legette’s “Authenticated” Signature!
Hold onto your collector’s hats, folks, because we’ve got a juicy story brewing in the world of sports memorabilia! Rick Probstein, a high-flying eBay Golden-Boy consignment seller, is currently under the spotlight for allegedly selling some fishy cards. And we’re not talking about your average football cards here.
Get this: A “2023 Contenders” card signed by Xavier Legette, which was “authenticated” by the big guns at PSA/DNA, is now raising some serious eyebrows.
Why?
Well, it turns out the PSA certification number (#85134846) for this supposedly legit card is actually linked to a completely different card – a Jordan Walker 2023 Bowman Sterling Autograph card.
Talk about a mix-up!
But wait, it gets juicier. This Xavier Legette card, sold on February 12th through Probstein’s Prostein123 auctions on eBay, seems to have a twin. Or maybe a triplet? This same card, with the exact same certification number, reportedly sold not once, but twice on the ultimatesportsmarketing eBay account back in December.
And here’s the kicker – ultimatesportsmarketing currently has the very same card listed for sale on eBay for a cool $99.
Coincidence? Scam? We’ll let you decide.
Something’s fishy over at Rick Probstein123 auctions – but it wouldn’t be the first time he’s been under fire for flipping fake garbage. Rick Probstein, the ball’s in your court! SCRUB!
