Thanks man..I love that card. From a Clips fan perspective, those two accomplished a ton. Even without advancing past Semis/winning a title, they helped change the culture of LAC and got us out of "laughingstock" territory. I'll always hold them both in high regard. Same goes for Deandre.

gem_city_sports on IG connected with Rick and he is sorting out. The scam buyers won't prevail here.

Default Probstein relists - getting out of hand...

I’m a victim of this as I consigned through rick recently. Someone “won” my auction through Probstein and didn’t pay. Never knew buyers have 20 days to pay before relisting.

Can anything be done to get the card re listed sooner?

This Hal Greer Flawless patch must be a new record - I don't know how many times Probstein has 'sold' it, but it keeps coming back....

You consign with Rick, you play by his rules and timelines. You can ask him but doubt you'll get a response or one you want to hear. Unfortunately you'll have to live with it selling much lower the next time whenever he feels like relisting.

Lol, it's up again......
Have to wonder if Gio owns this and is continually shilling it. He was a giant hypocrite (caught shilling) and this is the kind of card he'd go for.

How many auctions are we at for the Hal Greer Flawless patch card since the start of last year?

Six or seven?

I'd love to add the Greer to my collection, but it's hard to even consider bidding at this point. It's just comical.

HA you know the other day I saw bid shilling for the 1st time first hand. I've been following 1992 shaq topps gold cards cause i've always wanted one for my PC. So i found one i liked psa 9 and the auction was around 220 i think at the time. So i thought nice, this may stay in my range so i followed it. Then like a day before the auction ends someone jumps the bidding to 280 and i see it's a bidder with 0 feedback. So my first thought was from reading this board and if it was a fake shill bid. Card ended up selling for that 280 something bid and then 2 days later it gets relisted at a buy it now or best offer listing of 450 LOL

Grass is green, water is wet, Probstein relists the Hal Greer star again.

Didn't know how big of an issue this was for Probstein. I have been following this debacle of a card. Been relisted 12 times since April 19th!

Haha yeah just saw the new Greer listing.
Same 80 feedback "buyer" won it in June and May, yet here it is listed again...
They also bid on the one earlier this month $999.99 - can you be any more obvious?

It sucks that Probstein doesn’t file non paying bidders or block folks that do this. Even if they just did it to the 1% that were egregious and obvious. Pretty easy to see who consigned the Greer and ban the entire account/address

Yeah, I wonder why he doesn't block these people that he totally doesn't know.

Hopefully, there's a special place in hell for clowns such as Probie & PWCC
