I had asked about one of those decks on another thread and to be honest I would go to Theory11's forum and ask there or better yet give them a call on their business number. I may just do that when I find time to and if I do I will let you know. If you happen to beat me to the punch let us all know through this thread please. Thank you.

Just as I was about to ask on Theoryy11's forum, it looks like you or someone else asked there already. Now that it was confirmed by their VP that it's a scam, it's sad knowing people actually bought some of those decks and gave positive feedback to this guy on eBay.

Pay close attention to the comments on the feedback page of this guy. Notice how many different accounts all have the exact same wording "Very nice eBayer with fast transaction and nice items." This screams to me fake sales to try and justify some of the prices he is charging.

Thanks, flyers! That is _precisely_ what I was going to point out. I didn't find that previous conversation so I could merge it into that thread, but it has already been discussed, although never reached this conclusion exactly, as I recall (again, I'm just depending upon my memory, which is dangerous at best!).
Pure Smoke and Mirrors here, without question! He/she/it/their dog created fake accounts and bought them so they could make positive "reviews" in the feedback for their items.

Alright, so we can confirm that ebay user '52playingcardproductions' is indeed selling fakes and yes it was me who posted and got confirmation on the Theory11 forums.
While I do agree that the feedback left do seem fake what do you guys think of the fact that the users who left duplicated feedback all have feedback ratings in the thousands? Seems like a lot of work to create multiple accounts and get them up to thousands of feedbacks.
