A family member bought this in the early 90's. No documentation, no COA. I am a novice in the hobby. I would appreciate anyone's opinions. Is it a waste of time and money to send to PSA/DNA or James…Continue

Robert Litzenberger replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"Nobody being perfect does not mean it's a random shot. Good authenticators always come across material they haven't seen before, and they should know whether that means they have to put extra research in or should admit that they…"
Robert Litzenberger replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"If you consistently get, and try to sell, material from a bad provider, you are not a top-shelf business. Anyone who is in the business of selling autographs has the duty to vet them in-house. Certainly items coming from a trusted source with a…"

Richard Viola replied to Bill Morris's discussion Is Field Of Dreams a Legitimate COA?"I believe the Field of Dreams sports memorabilia stores are part of Mounted Memories. At first glance, they seem alright. However, there are two big problems I have with them: 1) They are insanely overpriced (at least the store…"
Bill Morris posted a discussionIs Field Of Dreams a Legitimate COA?
I would appreciate people's opinions about memorabilia from Field Of Dreams. I have been in their stores and while most of their stuff looks good, it is overpriced. I read something not long ago that AAU/Drew Max was performing their authentications a few years ago (and may be currently). I was under the impression that they held signings in the same manner that Steiner or TriStar did. Does anyone have any experience with them to verify? Thanks in advance!See More
Bill Morris replied to DB's discussion What are the views of this authenticator => Just Memorabilia"I have purchased some of their stuff and I believe it to be legitimate. It has passed PSA/DNA for me. They deal mainly in minor league stuff and hold on to it. Most of the items they sell are obtained when these guys are just starting out. They have…"
kevin conway replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"This may actually be a good idea. However, the issue of HOW to implement may be a bit tricky. I think the majority of the "experienced" collectors and dealers are well versed on WHO has the more consistent…"
Doug Canfield replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"Absolutely. It also shouldn't be a rush to judgement. I think a brainstorm among those heading the project first, perhaps followed by a full discussion on the board for a limited time (Comments like "knows his stuff on…"
DB replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"Still think you should see if yor tekiie weenies can add software like DOLOS and so many other have where individuals (collectors, dealers) can apply their own rating w/commentary. That way we are not dealing with lists.
we are never…"
Steve Cyrkin replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"That would work. We need people heading the project who are as unbiased as possible, but know what they're dealing with and the project's goals.
This is a project I'll provide tools and some guidance for, but it needs to be powered by…"
Doug Canfield replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"Rating by era is definitely the way to go. Probably a monumental task but we could start with one area first, divide it up and solicit opinions. At least its being proactive rather than trying to list the jerks (because new ones…"
Doug Canfield replied to Bill Morris's discussion Should We Publish a List Rating Authenticators?"We all know that we can't possibly know it all.
