A few months ago I decided that I needed a Patrick Mahomes autograph for my PC and as an investment piece. I searched eBay, made good offers and would seemingly always get sniped at the end. I submitted an offer on a Mahomes and it was accepted, I paid and received the card. It came in a One-touch with a seal and the back said it was guaranteed by Panini. So I was happy. I continued to talk to the original seller and that’s when I got caught up. He convinced me to go to Macari and look at his other high end cards. I ended up buying a Zion, Lamar and McCaffery autos. All send on time with no problems. Then the bottom fell out. I received multiple PMs stating that the seller was a known fraud. I contacted him and he said it was people who were upset about past transactions. The PMs kept coming but by that time the window for returns had closed. He continued to change his username until finally Macari shut him down. His last message was Macari shut him down but he was still selling trash on Etsy.

If it’s too good to be true, it is.






Here is the trash he sold me. I should have looked closer. Now, I could put them on my Instagram page and try to recoup my losses, but it would kill me to screw someone over for money.

I love this hobby and I hope someone will take away from this that all that glitters is not gold.
