Is it ever safe to buy autographs on eBay?

[bamafan09]

I have just recently started selling off some of my collection on Ebay. I have been collecting for seven years and I will tell you 97% of my collection is real. The only autopens or fakes I have received are from the Manning brothers Peyton and Eli and Terry Bradshaw who rumor has it has his brother sign for him. John Elway once sent me a stamped card as did Ernie Banks. I have mainly collected from the three major sports, baseball football and basketball and I will say I trust each of the autographs I have.

It depends on the popularity of the celeb as well as to the authenticity.

But as stated keep an open mind and most sellers of fakes will always say "we only sell authentics".
