When the "proof" pic doesn't match the item

eBay seller eddyb1951 is selling a Muhammad Ali glove that comes with a pic of him signing it, apparently.

Here's the listings description. "AUTOGRAPHED MUHAMMAD ALI/CASSIUS CLAY BOXING GLOVE WITH ADDED PHOTO OF HIM SIGNING GLOVE!!"

The thing is is that the glove he has is left handed with a white everlast tag. The glove Ali is signing in the pic is a right handed glove with a yellow everlast tag.

I messaged and this was his reply
"This picture in no way indicated the signing of this particular glove! It was during a signing event where NUMEROUS GLOVES were signed! There was no picture taking of EACH glove being signed!"

I didn't even bring up the fact that this isn't even a legit Ali autograph lol - this auto style is the biggest Ali fake out

Flag the listing people! Here's the link

It's funny how he messaged saying "This picture in no way indicated the signing of this particular glove" when the listing says "ADDED PHOTO OF HIM SIGNING GLOVE!!"

Scammer!

Yeah, funny how a lot of these "in person" guys have a collage of random celebrities signing that you can find on the first page of a google search.

I think "proof" pictures that have nothing to do with the specific item are perhaps the biggest red flag to avoid a seller. It shows that they're intentionally trying to mislead and misdirect right off the bat.

Nice catch, looks like eBay took it down
