Help With Mantle Auction

I need help with this auction. 1) What is even included??? 2) Is the included item(s) authentic?

This is worded so awfully, I can't even decipher what comes when you win the auction.

Hurt my eyes even trying to read it. The card is authentic, the slab is so small there's no way to tell, and the picture in the bottom left of the "display" is too small to be certain, but looks like a common forgery from what I can see. I would avoid.

So did you take from the auction that is for a 1) signed business card framed in display, 2) Slabbed signature, and 3) a signed photo (which you say looks to be a forgery)????

I've read it over and over and I still can't figure out what is going on. The photo of the slabbed signature is literally the smallest photo I have ever viewed on eBay!

Actually I think the auction is ONLY for the 19x23 "display" that has what appears to be a forgery from what I can see. I think the slab (which looks PSA/DNA slabbed so probably authentic), and the card are just pieces he is showing so that he can mention how much they are worth...

Very confusing/eye straining description. Avoid.

Agreed, you only get the one framed item and the Mantle is a forgery. I have never seen a Mantle with a Just Rookies certificate that was authentic.

The Mantle in the big display is a Florida forgery for sure. The "Yankee Greats" card looks authentic to me in my opinion.

The seller states that the only item to come in the auction is the framed piece with the signed card which everyone seems to think is legit. The other items (slabbed and photo) are not included and I am not sure why they are shown in the auction. For the $$, not a real great value. The framing job isn't anything I would keep.

"the photos are not signed This comes with COA and a serial numbered Autographed sighed card!
hope this helps you out,michael"
