Just in case the magnet guy wasn't annoying enough, now we have this fool (priciest REPRINT I've ever seen!)

Gotta love the description
"This is a really high quality reprinted card."
only put one "really" so I don't trust him. Now if he had said it was a "really really really high quality reprinted card" I would have believed it. ;-)

Is this a new thing? I've never seen anything like it before. I'm actually a bit confused... he just recreated the card? Then why the heck would anyone pay $30 for it - unless they're planning on re-selling it as authentic? The whole thing just seems like bad news to me. Sketchy.

essentially he did a high res scan of the card, now he'll try and sell it for what he paid for the original lol feel free to report him, I did!

Well the card has been pulled, so I suppose ebay probably toold him to take it down, or UD threatened a lawsuit. It's people like this that give our wonderful hobby a bad name.

RE: oh the fools on the bay
so a reprint? what is that? like literally printing a RNH YG on a piece of card board? this makes me never want to buy anything from ebay. imagine finnally getting that card you've wanted and it comes in printed on a cereal box, ha ha. good job reporting him. but the fridge magnet YG is kinda cool. hahaha
