The seller is selling another "not entirely as descibed" card.
LeBron Ultra RC
This card (or very similar card to it) has been floating around Australia for a while. (I was originally interested in it a few years ago, until I was warned off it by Billyhoyle, and then referred to this site).
This card came with the Hummer (Matchbox Car), and has been graded to be made to be looked like the LeBron RC. However, the LeBron RC has "Lucky 13" imprinted on the front, and is serially numbered to 500.
As Billy pointed out to me, the Hummer card is only valued around the $10 mark, so I guess beware of this as well.
I guess the next cards he will sell would be the 92/93 Stadium Club Beam Team Member's Only Cards as the regular Beam Team inserts.

I agree with "SPCARD". I am continually writing to sellers that have obvious fake/repro MJ rookies for auction. Most are very obvious. The logo that SPCARD shows is one of the easiest ways to tell a fake. Most fakes have solid yellow tags off the yellow banner, instead of the orangish tags. Also, in most cases, the word "Premier" is brownish in color on the more common fakes.
If you have the program Microsoft Power Point on your computer, this is a super tool to use when seeing an MJ rookie on Ebay. Go to the picture and right click on it, then click on copy. Open up PowerPoint and paste the picture to the middle of the slide. Then got to the top and click on 200% or higher. Then take a good look at the logo. If the picture is too blurry to distinguish the logo's properties, get the seller to send you a better picture.
My personal recommendation to ANY collector is to not purchase an MJ rookie on Ebay that isn't graded. There are just too many fakes out there to take the chance.
Now, as a test, you may want to look at Ebay auction 250154106665 and see what you think. I wrote him an email with no response.

I agree. Ignores PM's from Admin and is well aware of this thread and too gutless to respond. Behaviour not befitting a member here and he can peddle his fake goods on eBay where they condone this behaviour. This site is mostly supplied with members by word of mouth and decent ones already in the card community but it is not a public site where members that fit the bill of this guy are welcome to post, sell and trade.
Only those stupid enough to bid on this guys private auctions will deal with from now on and he wont have the pleasure of dealing with honest traders here anymore.
