Thought people might like to see a bad forgery.
Just a little listing I found on ebay. Shows how stupid some forgers really are.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... :IT&ih=012

I'm sure no further explanation is needed, but for the people that don't get it right away.
This is a picture of Christopher Reeves after his accident where he got paralyzed from the neck down. And it's signed.

It's even dumber then offering a Humprey Bogart autograph signed with a sharpie.

I reported them with ebay, I wonder if this listing will actually be removed.

haha,
well spotted!
I agree, some people think they can sign something then go and sell it!
I wouldnt be surpised if there were pictures of elvis standing infront of the ruins of 9/11 signed with a pp lol.

anyway, its really good that you reported it!
people cant get away with stuff like that!

If you think about it, unless you collected autographs, it wouldn't occur that he cannot've signed it. The majority of people who buy autographs on eBay are not collectors, just fans, so have no idea if he could or couldn't sign it. Best example being things signed by people like Princess Diana in sharpie, something she obviously wouldn't do.

eBay wont remove it, no matter how much of a fuss anyone kicks up with them they don't take any action.

There actually could be pictures photoshopped like that, and a preprint can be printed on just about any picture...

Thanks for pointing that out! I was going to bid on it!

hey can we only send photos and stuff? or can we send like jerseys or bigger things?

hi you can send other items but it would be more postage and their is a chance you cant get it back

and back on topic i saw a pretty stupid auto on ebay the other day as well it was two carrie underwood autos one was a signed christmas stocking and one was a some hearts promo pic the promo looked ok sig wise but the stocking looked really forged and why would she sign a stocking for and the icing one the cake was it was only listed at 4.99

Unfortunately there are thousands of forgeries out there and they are really hard to prove. I mean you can look at a sig and think "Wow, that's way off!" but to actually prove it's a forgery is really hard. I guess that's why Ebay never removes the obvious fakes!

what do you mean a chance we wont get it back? like what would happen?

Ebay Removed it... good catch {thumb2}
