PS I meant to say that the legit dealer/authenticator should easily trump the forensic guy in cases dealing with autographs of famous people. In cases of questioned documents of non personalities or where ink dating or other scientific criteria come…

I think you mean "graphologist" . If you look up graphology in wikipedia you will see that these individuals are often incorrectly compared to forensic document examiners. A graphologist is one who looks at handwriting to determine…

I have noticed that a lot of autograph dealers try to hand pick their own authenticator. It seems like a conflict of interest. It seems like the Better Business Bureau would pick up on this when you file a complaint. Once the dealer gets your money…

Steve, Sounds like the verbage on her COA prevents anyone from meeting her conditions for a refund. It is like saying you need a licensed plumber to certify the electrical work done on a job. Is it not?

I'm relentless. They will not get away with anything. Already contacted the BBB. Did not know if the authorities would have an interest but will try. Did not think to call Landlord but that sounds like an interesting idea. With your permission…

If you're confident it's a forgery and that you're getting the runaround, I think you should file reports with the Las Vegas Police Department, the FBI, complain to the Better Business Bureau and their landlord, Caesar's Palace.…

Toby Stoffa Antiquities CAVEAT EMPTOR "BUYER BEWARE"!

Those of you who have been following my blogs know I am currently doing battle with Toby Stoffa for her refusal to refund to me the purchase price of a Rat Pack Photo signed by all 5 which JSA certified as Fraudulent! My lawyers are currently preparing the papers to litigate. Her COA states that a Certified Graphoanalyst must certify the signature not to be authentic. I do not know what that is. Although she seems to have a list of them. Is there such a certification? If so, what group or…See More

Mike, Thank You for the advice. It did not occur to me that the FBI would have an interest. I will certainly give them a call and see if they care.

Imagine that? She doesn’t except PSA or JSA… Gee I wonder , could that be because she CANNOT pay then off like she does one of the so-called “forensic experts” like Frangiapini? And Myron Ross? The same guy Banned for life…

..."She then suggested a gentleman who upon further research on the internet was referred to as"the authenticator of choice for fraudulent items" in an FBI sting that was done some years back."... Just a wild guess: That…

Steve, Thank You . Although I am not well versed in this field; I have many years of business experience. I do not respond well to threats nor am I intimidated by them. I assume they employ these tactics to intimidate the average Joe. I chose your…

Tom, No need to set up a Web site. Feel free to have people discuss their factual comments and experiences on this site if you prefer. We kicked Myron Ross out of Autograph magazine years ago for selling forgeries, and the UACC kicked him out of…

Beware Toby Stoffa of Antiquities Las Vegas

Posted on August 30, 2010 at 10:00am 8 Comments 0 Likes

I purchased a Rat Pack photo from her 10 years ago; signed by all 5. I proudly displayed it on the wall in my office. Recently I decided to get it authenticated. I brought it to JSA and they said it was fraudulent. She offered to take it back on consignment but refused to refund me the original purchase price of $ 2300.00; as she does not recognize JSA or PSA as authorities. She said I should send it to Col. Myron Ross who she purchased the piece from for authentication. I was…
