This is a fake right? A bad one at that right?

1992 UPPER DECK KEN GRIFFEY JR EMPLOYEE ID CARD RARE ODD BALL!!! | eBay

I can not say with certainty, I have never seen an Upper Deck employee badge, but the front of the card looks awfully blurry. I don't think that Upper Deck would hand out badges that looks so washed out.

But you can always email Upper Deck and ask. Include a link, if it is fake they may have the auction ended.

Finding this one centered is not as common as one may think. But I love this card. For me, the '89 Topps Traded is my favorite of all his rookies. The Tiffany gloss just takes it to that next level.

That Tiffany is a beauty!

joey_peapod · 02-24-2017, 07:10 PM

Anyone want to trade be a 90s insert for this?

Junior Griffey · 02-24-2017, 09:57 PM

That's an awesome looking Griffey auto!

I am mad jealous! You better never let go of that! If you do tho, let me be the first to know!

OriginalEGG · 03-20-2017, 09:30 PM

A big thank you to Joey for working with me on a deal for a card I've been chasing for awhile. Just got it in hand this afternoon and couldn't help myself...

This and a few other pickups were enough to update the collection picture:

Flea Market Find!

I am not a Griffey collector when I see good cards I gotta get them.

dcarado · 03-24-2017, 07:52 PM

I pulled this redemption about a month ago, and it came in the mail today.

OriginalEGG · 03-26-2017, 09:16 PM

Griffey buyers be careful with ebay seller Yohi252.

Name sounds familiar so not sure if he is on these boards.

He has this listing posted that says he has multiple Griffey dynasty 1/1s

Two of the ones he has listed are mine (as you can actually see in the posts above).

I messaged him on ebay but got no response, and have since reported the listing to ebay.

I messaged him a few weeks ago trying to figure exactly how many 1/1's he was actually selling, since some of the photos were duplicates. I didn't hear anything for over a week. Then I get a message from him saying, "you have a 1/1." Very odd seller. Now he's trying to list cards he does t even own? Scumbag I guess...

Looks like the report did something, because the listing was taken down. The "seller" also replied to me after it went down clarifying that the cards in the main image are cards he is looking to buy and wants the owners to contact him (although nothing in his description or listing said that anywhere). So it looks like the main image he wants, the other images he owns, but he isn't looking to sell anything.

And in the mean time, if someone offers an outrageous some of money, maybe he accepts and runs with it. Very shady

Just exchanged a few longer messages with him. Seems like just a passionate collector trying to make contacts.

Agree that initially the listing gave off that vibe, but I'm confident he is just a good guy trying what he can to work around Ebay flags to find the buyers of the cards he wants.

I just picked up this lot from twitter. It came to just over $3 per card. How could I pass it up?
