Below you find screen shots of Ebay Listings of Mickey Mantle forgeries "authenticated (cough, cough)" by Stephen Rocchi and his Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators (GFA) group.

This doesn't even include the GFA-certed forgeries of Joe DiMaggio, Willie Mays, Ted Williams, Hank Aaron, Whitey Ford and other athletes.

I will continue to expose this garbage "authenticated" by Stephen Rocchi.

I wonder how many thousands of forgeries (the majority machine-produced) have been "authenticated" by Stephen Rocchi (GFA) since Sept. 2011 when he started "authenticating" for John House, CEO of AtAuction.

Also, in my opinion, none of the below sellers are "innocent."  In my opinion, they know exactly what (forgeries) they are listing and selling.

They are simply hiding behind a "Forensic" COA (Stephen Rocchi and GFA).

And what about Stephen Rocchi and his Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators (GFA) group.

The truth is, this is easy money for Stephen Rocchi.

A typical sale for a single-signed Mantle forgery with a COA from Stephen Rocchi (GFA) is anywhere between $40.00 and $80.00.  Like the one below.

It sold on Ebay for a whopping $36.00 from Ebay seller Rbisportsinc (no sells more GFA-certed forgeries than Ebay seller Rbisportsinc).

Below is a listing of Stephen Rocchi's "Forensic" rates to examine an autograph.

His lowest rate is $100.00.  So do the math.  How does this all work?

How does it work?  

Let's speculate.  The source of the Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Willie Mays, etc. forgeries on photographs submits his forgeries in bulk to Rocchi and Rocchi prints the COAs, etc.

Or....

Does Rocchi ship a batch of COAs, holograms, etc, to the source of the forgeries, who then applies the holograms?

Any way you look at it, there is obviously a Bulk Rate Deal to cert all of those thousands of forgeries that we see on Ebay every day.

Also, I am very curious just how much Ebay has profited from the sales of GFA-certed forgeries since they (GFA-certed forgeries) began infecting the autograph hobby.

Mickey Mantle passed away August 13th, 1995 and yet for the last ten years or so all of these pristine-images with his "autograph (forgeries)" continue to be listed and sold.
