This is terrible :mad:
Maybe you can try writing the newspaper about this apart from notifying the trading standards.

I was in that exact shop on Thursday and was looking at the signed Man United balls - they are all EXACTLY the same ie the same sigs next to each other at the same angle, like its been done by machine. I think they were £200 each.

Its horrible that so many people will be ripped off this christmas.

They are obvious fakes {down}
I would probably try to email both trading standards and the police with details of this shop, as even a newbie could tell they are fakes - hopefully that could shut them down.

For the last three years in my local town Basingstoke there has been a shop
called pretiege gallery. It opens from November to January and then
shuts down for another year. In the shop there are a number of things
sold. Canvases of movie poster/stars ect,posters,gift items and
autographs. All the autographs are from the likes of fully signed 2 man
utd signed footballs,gerrard,lampard.lewis hamilton,team signed shirts basicaly all the top
teams and players. Of note they have a george best signed shirt with a
coa from fa premier signings who as most of you know are well known
forgers. The worst of it is that they want £400/$850-900 for it! I
have been meaning to report these guys for sometime but im not sure
where to start. Should I go into the shop all guns blazing or go for a
meeting with trading standards? Has anyone had experiance doing this
kind of thing? attached are some blurry {down} pics.
