You wanna see a Walter Payton fake?
So I found this card on a site my wife sells jewelry on, it is a handmade and vintage item site. This card was listed as a "reprint" and there was only 1 reprint that was made by Topps and this is not it. Think this card is as thick as a topps kickoff card.

Just an fyi folks. This seller also had other Topps rc cards from different sports listed as reprints. And I am currently in the process of getting this taken care of.

Too bad it wasn't real, because it would be a beauty!

Is the white at the top and bottom from the scanned image of the card? If not, that is a really telltale give away it's a cheap knock off imo

That is from the scan. My problem is there is a few sellers on this site that are selling Reprints of true sports legends the only upside is they are saying they are reprints and only asking a few bucks for them.

Well... As long as they are selling it as a reprint I guess I'm not outraged. It's still wrong though and should be stopped!

I have contacted Topps and am waiting to hear back from them.
