Matt, tell that antelope/goat/reindeer to pass the effin' popcorn.
There's a herd of sheep flapping their gums and it looks like there's no end in sight.

Re: 6 charged with fraud
I have purchased a few items from JO and after going back and double checking photo matches (that I found on my own) I thought I would chime in.
When it comes to misrepresentation of items it is not just a once case situation. Just within this thread we have picked up countless situations. In my previous 2 purchases they were all "photomatched" to a wrong date or wrong game. When I asked for the photomatches they found I never was given any photos at all. To me this was a minor error because I actually knew what the items were and what games they were from even though JO had no clue. If your going to put your name behind something in the business world, guarantee it is authentic and market it as game used from a certain game GET IT RIGHT. This is something JO has not been able to do on numerous items and whether it is big or small it is something that needs to be fixed.
Since we are only allowed to reply on this thread if we have purchased from JO, I wanted to share my thoughts.Looking for: Joey Votto game used items.

Re: 6 charged with fraud
So far I have read from someone on the board who bought a jersey from a player who played less than 1 full NFL game, and was refunded their full money.
I have heard from someone who was going to buy the jersey of a kicker, but deemed the jersey to be issued, no worn (sorry, but I'm not sure how to tell the difference from a player who kicks a ball? worn?? issued?? but that's a whole different argument).
And I have read about how someone bought a game used jersey from JO, was able to photomatch it, but photomatch it to a different game than the team told JO that the jersey came from .
Call me crazy...but hardly offenses that would warrant an investigation from the FBI. I would still love to know what the charges are, when they came from, and what the scenario was. I would love to hear about the $20,000 Sanchez jersey that was found to be a fraud. Or the $18,000 Manning jersey that was bogus. Or perhaps the bad Peterson jersey that was doctored up with fake ball marks and hit marks, and sold for $10,000. I know of 2-3 auction houses that continue to sell bogus items, and still carry on business as usual. So the people who have come forward have all brought up great issues, but hardly FBI worthy offenses.

Re: 6 charged with fraud
I have purchased several from JO but I have a feeling the only people who want the other people quiet are people still holding jerseys with COAS until they sell them.

Re: 6 charged with fraud
That day they had there best sale was the end of the auction on their website. Also this was before anyone realy new about all of this. I agree wait until everyone they delt with finds out I bet they get plenty of returns on their items they have sold.
I still don't understand some of you on here. Jarrod was charged in federal court and seems like he has plead out on this case. Am I missing anything here? I didn't think so.
Jarrod is the guy who screwed up his life and his company not anyone else buy himself!!
If you still feel like buying from a known scam artist go ahead. It doesn't matter if it was one jersey or 1,000 jerseys!!
