Please. The guy peddles fake nirvana autographs and find it incredulous.
I can show you a couple of real nirvana autographs i own.
You will more than likely find it back on ebay soon from the same seller.

This is part of the reason no one authenticates nirvana autographs.

Proof again that 'likely genuine' and 'unlikely genuine' Nirvana pieces sell for the same money (as been shown by a number of eBay sales in the past couple of months). Only completely laughable pieces get low bids and only spot-on with cast iron provenance get the big bucks.

I believe the authenticators have made to many mistakes in the past so now they don't want anything to do with nirvana. So in part their to blame along with the forgers.
I asked one auction company if they would consign one of my nirvana items, they replied yes they would consign it. But i can buy one identical signed days apart and i guarntee that they wouldnt consign it.
I'm thinking how many Amy winehouse autographs have been authenticated and years later, we will figure out the wheat from the chaff.

I have had in-person Amy autographs and the market has been flooded with fakes. Her signature was simple, and so was Kurt's, so fakes are always abound!
