Bruce Springsteen autographed Darkness on the Edge of Town album

Do anyone have an opinion on this Springsteen-item on ebay?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bruce-Springsteen-autographed-Darkness-on-t...

The price is very low, and that there are no bidders yet should set a red flag. But if its authentic it would be a very good bargain...

It doesn`t ship to Norway, so i`m out of it anyways. But interesting to see any opinions.

No expert here.. I have been fooled. But I do not like it at all.. unless its a super early signature.

I`m highly in doubt myself, but yes, it`s supposed to have been signed back in 1981. Looks a little bit like one I have, but still some differences.

It's either a nice 1981 signature or a good fake of an 81signature. I have seen (and have) a few from this period and it's close but not exact. The "Bruce" looks ok but the "G" going into the "T" in his last name looks weird. Could go either way on this one. Here's one I have from that era that I think is good:

That could be real... Not sure, but if it's a fake, it's not a bad one ! Bruce signed pretty much like that in the late 70's, early 80's...

Yes, looks like a close call this one, think I would made a bid if I was living in the US since it`s just $30. Asked him, and he refused to ship to Europe. :-P

It`s a bit similar to mine from 1980 too:

Yes, it would be nice to get a more definitive answer on this one.. A great vintage Springsteen if real.

I know for sure that his Roy Orbison and Genesis album are not real. But the seller stats that he have bought those albums and that he got the Bruce Springsteen album in person. So it could be good.
