Nothing Yet Mate...Keep Checking

Half those index cards and pictures were signed with the exact blue sharpie marker. If u are gonna honestly stand out somewhere waiting for celebrities why wouldnt u bring a camera with u like that Meggy girl? Plus why bring a note card if you are getting an autograph in person?

This is why I wouldnt buy anything unless it was from a convention, company or had a picture of the person signing the ACTUAL item.

right..... well you can actually compare these auto's to other i-p success's and you will see that they are authentic , maybe he dosent have a camera and i hardly class you as trust worthy considering you have all of "4" post's lol

Right

I have been selling autographs from conventions and different events for years. I wouldnt even consider paying money for ANY autograph that wasnt signed at said event, from a big company like Steiner, or for one that has a photo of the celeb signing the actual item in question and maybe a through the mail autograph with return package.


Honestly I have seen a lot of autographs that look real but are totally fake. PSA/DNA is worthless when it comes to celebrities signatures because the forger can imitate the auto and celebs autos change much more than an athletes might.

Forgers use overhead projectors and practice on plain paper until they get the autograph right. Amateurs mainly sell index cards because they are cheap and if they screw up it is no big deal. Its basically pratice until they memorize the signature and then trace it with the projection of the signature. Can easily be done on anything flat. I have been to autograph shows and listened to experts that had forged many items and had them authenticated by the so-called "experts" at PSA/DNA. Note: They had the autographs authenticated as a documentary on the shortcomings of the hobby, not to sell the merchandise.

Im just saying that tons of in person autographs with not one picture of the guy meeting any of these people is REALLY fishy. Might be real but thats why a certified convention photograph of Patrick Stewart costs $75. You pay for the piece of mind.

Yes, I'm hearing you! I would be extremely cautious! I don't study signatures but I'm a savvy collector and what stands out to me is this - If the autographed IC's are authentic and the dates he recieved them are correct, that means he's been taking the same blue marker pen to events for the past five years! Very, very suspicious

Also, the amount of posts a member has does not reflect their knowledge on the hobby. I believe this new member is trying to stop people getting screwed! {thumb2}
