How I Met Your Mother signed script real?

[JadeNic]

So, a friend just "won" this on ebay as a gift for her husband. She wanted to know what I though about it authenticity. I really have no idea.

Do you think it is authentic,reprint, or just plain forged?

I know cast signed scripts are often forged or copies, but the seller does seem legit.

Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry to say another ebay fake. I don't understand why you asked for our opinions on authenticity AFTER the fact your friend already bought it. By then its too late.

Because she asked me after she purchased it. She said the seller told her that he would give her a full refund if she has a problem with the authenticity.

Is there a way for her to prove it isn't authentic?

Thanks for your help.

According to the terms of the auction it says she can return it for any reason, so she should do just that.

Hey bud simpson, would you mind telling me how you know the item is fake so that I can report the seller?

Thank you.

The autographs just seem like they are fake. It is not any particular reason that they are, but that the circumstances just seem a tad shady. If you click the picture of the script on the eBay listing, you are taken to a page with several photos of signed scripts from several shows, most signed in silver sharpie. Items like this are rare, even rarer signed in the same sharpie. Let alone obtaining it for $29.00. Obtaining such a signed script is nearly impossible. Especially for a show such as Friends, as they sold before. Items like this are worth so much, so any seller in their correct mind wouldn't think of letting it go on eBay for such a low price. You can report the seller, but it would do no good. Sellers post fake things all the time, their defense being that they say it is real. Nothing can be done to combat this, unfortunately.
You should tell her to return the script for a full refund, because she is protected under eBay buyer protection.
