paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/06/2016 10:55 am I found this one shopping for 1888-O's. I did send him a message that this is NOT a VAM-4 "Hot Lips" and the ebay policy of showing numerical grades from basement slabbers. Maybe a few more like "advisements" will show him the light?

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 03/06/2016 11:00 am Yup, highly egregious. Notice how he doesn't say it's a hot lips, just uses the words in the title then again in the description. Plus I like how he says all grading companies are different lol. I bet with hot lips in the title bobby can get it gone if he's still talking to his contact. Report this Post to the Staff
paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 03/06/2016 5:44 pm Seller's listing does not mention VAM or Hot Lips anywhere, someone must have clued him in. Also no longer has a grade in the title. Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D.

MontCollector Pillar of the Community United States 2403 Posts	Posted 03/06/2016 6:33 pm Is it me or does this look way over graded? From pics I would have hard time giving it above a 62. Report this Post to the Staff
paleoguy45 Pillar of the Community United States 2936 Posts	Posted 03/06/2016 7:32 pm That's a bogus grade from a bottom basement "grading" company. I might give it a 63 on a good day. ebay should gong the listing because only the "Big Four" graders can be shown/referenced. PG Report this Post to the Staff
