I'm really unsure about this :/ It kinda matches others, but doesn't look completly the same, but when he signed it he could have been in a rush or anything like that.

Looks good.

Looks JUST like my in person Depp signautre. Mine was rushed as he signed my Rolling Stone magazine at the Public Enemies premier here in Chicago.
Danks!!

Went through his history as a dealer...he somehow managed to get seven (seven!) cast members (incl James Cameron) to sign a full size poster that remained in mint condition with no smears or tears at all at the premiere (I can't get one celeb to return a poster in mint condition, let alone being banged around in a crowd trying to get seven cast members to sign)

Can you really imagine him going to a movie premier with a full-size poster (presumably temporarily backed with cardboard in order to make it sign-able) and convincing every single important actor in the movie to stop and sign his poster?

The best part? They apparently all brought their own pens! lol It's signed with at least three different pens that I can see...'cause celebs always want to sign with their own pen.

I wouldn't go near this auction with a ten foot pole...if it was actually real...he'd go through PSA/DNA or one of the other (frankly) mediocre authentication houses and would have put it up for a real auction rather than buy-it-now.

P.S. Another sign...the "proof" is pictures of the celebs signing anything but his poster...

P.P.S. Or how about that he lists PSA/DNA in his auction titles even though he means "guaranteed" to pass authentication rather than being authenticated already.

P.P.P.S. or that the $2000 Michael Jackson poster (sold Jan 2) has mysteriously been removed

P.P.P.P.S or that a professional autograph hunter manages to score guitar picks from Van Halen and BB King (no proof whatsoever offered) and get all seven cast members to sign Avatar posters BUT has only sold like six things in 2010.

i.e. FAKE

I can't stress it enough..."BEWARE eBAY when buying autographs unless you know the the person selling". I'm a seller on eBay (I don't sell autographs) and "signed" items are one of the biggest scams there. I know not all are fake, but a very large amount are. As for "COAs" and "Proof of photos", they can be faked as well. Photos of celebs signing are all over the Internet and it's very easy for someone to steal that photo and use it as thier "proof". Photoshop is also a wonderful/evil thing. People can take a photo from online of someone signing one thing and photoshop it to look like thye are signing the item you are purchasing.

We would all love to have certain names in our collections, but please hold out until you know that you can get the real thing. In the mean time, there are so many wonderful people to write to that are more than happy to sign for you.

I was not aware of the sellers history. Though it does look like a "rushed" Depp signature I wouldn't feel comfortable buying it now.
