Ebay seller allhopeisgone1980 selling fake autographs

About every week or so when i search ebay i see this notorious scammer selling Albert Pujols fakes and people bidding away on them....Now I have seen him mentioned many times before on here and other card sites as well..The dude has been scamming people big time for a long time now..I called him out on ebay a while back and he replied with a big rant and then blocked me from messaging him..He sells fake pujols 1/1s all the time..I figured i would make this thread and expose his fakes a little more and hopefully it will keep someone from getting scammed.

I have been noticing this as well. I will help spread the word and thanks.

Have you reported him to eBay?

I reported a seller selling fake 2006 topps golds of alex gordon, i bought 2 of them, and i know they are fake because this guy had them listed each week, rain or shine, and I happen to have 2 others that are original and the printing is different on the fakes! They list for $60 in beckett. After I reported him to Topps and eBay, he stopped and I have never seen the seller again!

Maybe you need to contact Topps and let them know what this guy is doing! Contact eBay as well and maybe try to get the FBI involved since this is intra-state fraud. Good luck and thanks for helping police the hobby! You have my respect and admiration!

you would think that he/she would atleast switch up the pens

I've reported this clown to ebay a bunch of times but it doesn't look like ebay has done anything..There has to be some higher powers we can report dead beat people like this dude and get them busted or at least removed from ebay...I'll try emailing topps and see if that will help anything.

Take care!

I read Chinese and the Chien-Min **** is fake! I can see the difference as the Chinese signature looks like it should in Chinese but the fake is not even close! You can tell the guy just made some scribbles that he thought were close. Horrible try but I am sure he duped someone! Call Topps (800) 489-9149 and tell them this guy's eBay id, the item #s and then call or email eBay and tell them you contacted Topps already. This may get them off their butts a bit! Let's hope so as this angers me to no end! Dishonest thieves make me sick!

Notice the bidders IDs are kept private as well.

Check out this so called buy back

what a trashy seller this guy is!

I called topps on this clown today the rep i spoke with at topps said that topps cant do nothing about people selling fakes on ebay..I guess i'll try contacting ebay some more.

Also edited the post and added another fake 1/1 autograph of his.

This guy is such a jerk! I see him on ebay all the time, he recently just sold a Hank Aaron "buyback" auto 1/1. Something has to be done about this, he cant keep jipping people like he is doing now>

Eish, how many times can someone get away with the same thing? I know there is a sucker born every minute, but enough is enough. So many 1/1's and the pic showing back of card dosen't show 1/1 or is too far away from card to tell. That would be my 1st tip off.

Just added another fake 1/1 that he sold!

you would think that the scumbag would at least change his number skeems. if people would just look at the guy's other auctions and see that they are all number 1/1, that should set off bells right there.

Just updated the first post with the price of the pujols he sold today..The clown just scammed some blind buyer $199.09 plus $3.50 shipping for a fake autograph.

There comes a point you start looking at the buyers who are willing to drop 3 figures plus without doing any research on what they are buying. What the seller is doing is wrong, but if people would look into things just a little, his sales would be a lot tougher and would be for a lot less IF they sold at all.

Has to be some new to the hobby or someone not from the hobby..or else it would show in his feedback! Best regards, David

Only one negative and only 8 netural.....

So I posted something like this on another site.

One of the buyers of a couple Pujols came forward and now is in the process of disputing the cards.
Glad we can keep people alerted on this stuff.

Its sad that Ebay will never care as long as they make money

Thats sucks that someone close to the trading boards has been scammed by this clown..I hope they get their money back.

people feel free to copy and paste this info on other sites..I'm only on about a couple sites so post this where ever you browse at..All you got to do is go as if your going quote my first post that has has all the info and then copy and you should be able to copy and paste the images and all..Spread the word and maybe we can at least prevent someone from getting scammed.
