*BEWARE* ebay jerseyking55

[RaidernatioN]

Hello guys,

New to the forum. Wanted to take this opportunity to let you know I purchased a game worn signed Kobe Bryant jersey from this guy on eBay. As soon as I got it I sent it to JSA for authentication. Mr. Spence (JSA) listed 5 different things that were wrong with this signature on my LOO on this jersey. I reached out to Mr. Ryan Covell the owner of nba-game-worn-jerseys.com, explained to him what happened at the authenticator and asked for him to make it right and told him I would return the jersey to him. He didn't even respond to my emails so I filed theft by deception charges against him locally last week and my local jurisdiction is forwarding these charges to Orange County, Florida. May never see my money but wanted to put this fool on blast. His email and username on here is ryanjerseyb@aol.com.

Buyers beware. His website claims "attention to service and quality". :confused:

Happy hunting..:cool:

This is why I only buy from Meigray and Steiner... I pay a premium, but I know what I am buying.....

So, this guy Ryan Covell is at it again. He is selling a Paul Pierce jersey, which was once owned by Chris Klarner. Here is the jersey for sale currently:

Here is a discussion about the Paul Pierce jersey:

So I contacted jerseyking55 to find out if he bought the jersey from Chris. His response was that he has owned the jersey for 5 years and that he just decided to sell it. He obtained it from a source that works for Apple. I asked him why he used Chris' photos for his auction, he never responded. He then proceeded to tell me that if I am not interested in buying anything, that I need to quit wasting his time.

He has a twitter account that he uses to promote selling his jerseys, so you can see what he looks like.

He is also a member here under the username "ryanjerseyb"

Did you use paypal? If so you have 45 day dispute rights.

Their post was from last year, so I think the limitations are up.
