Hey all,
I was looking to buy an autograph off of Ebay, and I do know the crazy amount of fakes that are posted there eevryday, so I'm reaching out for the help of experienced collectors..
Here's a link to the auction..
http://cgi.ebay.com/George-Clooney-Matt ... m153.l1262
The seller has multiple items listed and it really seems legit in my opinion, but again I would like everyone's opinion..Help me out guys!!! Thanks everybody.

That is authentic, you can see George is signing the exact same photo!
Go for it

There is no way you can say thats the "exact same photo".

No, you can't. I've looked closely, and I've zoomed in. You cannot make that claim AT ALL.
Its not even the same photo image for a start!
Here are the pics, like I said, you can't make that claim, even "looking closely"

Agreed. I've spent the last half hour looking at this and others and the majority of the so called proof photos do not show the actual picture being signed. Here is another , show me where the South Park photo is?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 7571885423 even if the actual photo was being shown it's still not a 100% guarantee that your going to get that exact photo. Biggest scam going is get one item signed and then selling the same item with forgered signatures. Believe nothing you read and half of what you see.

Yea, I've been looking at the different items for a while and the ones that say Exact show the same picture being signed but the signature is in a different place. The autographs look prett legit when I compared them to in-person and autograhworld etc., but I'm not sold on the way they list the items.

The so called "proof photos" might have even been stolen from others
