Malkin Cup fake 11/99

[Mack]

Hey All I was looking up Malkin Cup Rc and came across a BIN/auction for a 3cl at $1500.00. Wondered why the BIN has not been hit I checked up Gomaz's tracker and see that it is a different scan.

Did the seller say anything about it, ie where he got it?

Huh I once bought from this seller before without any troubles. Mind you it wasn't anything high-end, but they don't look like the kinda people who are in the patch-faking business...they probably got hosed.

I see from the Malkin link above that it looks like he shilled the auction as well. I have a feeling this seller knows more than he's letting on. With this Malkin auction being proven a fake, who's going to take the chance that Phaneuf Cup RC, Gretzky or Lemieux patch are real?
Not me........

 

[GoCanGo]

I don't see any proof of shilling in there. Who would shill a Malkin 3-color Cup RC to 135$ and put a reserve on it?

I admit though I would stay far from the rest after seeing the Malkin is faked.

Seller's name is Pascal; that name has come up recently in some other issue threads.....

I remember this as well, though some esteemed members went to bat for him. This really just sounds like he bought a fake and didn't realize it.

I also loked at his Kessel and Staal Cup RC and they matched up to the archive. Maybe good seller getting caught with a fake that he did not know was fake.
