I'm not going to argue with someone who actually thinks they can evaluate an autograph's authenticity in the blink of an eye.

Randy there are tons of forgeries that are so bad, that I can tell they are fake in a matter of seconds EASILY... If you had a trained eye for a particular signature, you could do the same.

The seller's with 1-2 bad items here and there are going to get away with it.

It is the forgery rings that SURVIVE VIA EBAY that are absolutely ridiculous. I spot these accounts in 2 seconds, someone at eBay could do the same.

Exactly, people who have an eye for autographs can tell right away most of the time. I had my co-worker Jennifer called up ebay on her phone yesterday to expose these forgery rings you've pointed out here just to hear what ebay would say. I told Jen what to tell ebay, that it was impossible to get all that World cup and All Star Game items and that common sense tells you he is part of a major forgery ring. She then directed ebay to authentic items of some of the baseball players so the ebay rep could see the difference between the real autographs and the forgeries. The guy from ebay said all the autographs looked them same to him & told Jen he was thankful to her for letting him know and this report would be given to someone in their fraud department for a full scale investigation. He then told her that she would not get to know the results of the investigation but was assured one would be done. Translation: Ebay is not going to do anything and you just wasted all your time calling into us!

You must had bad eyes Randy. I'm not going argue with you either about something I know I can do and so can many others. It's like recognizing someone you know walking down the street. You know someone or something when you see it. It's not rocket science
