Mean Girls Signed Script-eBay bought

Unread post by summerland1991 »

Hey...I have a Mean Girls signed script I bought off of ebay a couple of years ago + I thought I'd check to see if it is authentic or not...I remember it wasn't too expensive (something like $30)

script: http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/9536/p1080122v.jpg
certificate (I know these things are easily forged/made up): http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/9441/p1080123.jpg

thanks!

Signed scripts on Ebay are very rarely authentic. Most of them are just plain forgeries. This script unfortunately falls under that category of forgeries.

thanks for your replies. It wasn't a complete waste, however, because it did come with the entire movie script :)

Hi summerland1991! ;-)

Unfortunately I agree with the above, it's a very bad forgery. {down} Tina Fey's autograph doesn't look like that, and obviously Amanda's autograph is very badly done too and doesn't look like her TTM ones at all. You can see how "shaky" the autographs are, it appears as though the person who forged it tries to copy from authentic examples, but it didn't work. :neutral:

At least you have a script, as you said! {thumb2}

It's a real shame that peple do this, but then again we all love money..some a little more than others. $30, spent. But yes, you did get the sciprt which is a bonus to the tale. {thumb2}

What a shame, you can tell its not real even by a picture so I dont know how you didnt know it was fake without asking us, you can tell because there is no light shining off it, no smears or anything. Its either preprinted or fake signatures but most likely preprint, sorry,

I bought it when I was probably in middle school so I was pretty naive and definitely didn't think they would sell fakes...I know it's not a preprint though because when looking at the back, you can tell that the "seeping of the sharpies" (if that makes sense) is not all even and similar like a preprint would be.

There's no shine or smears so it's a pre print? That's one of the weirdest things I've heard in a while. They are forgeries, nothing more and nothing less.
