Am I the "fool on the hill" to think this looks good?

Your not a fool!

However,how is the book intact?Was the page cut out?Is the signed  page taped to something?These are all framing questions that would be of interest to me.I believe there is a pic of mine  on this site If you feel the need to compare.

I wanted to purchase this one but NEED psa/dna authentication for resale ( I felt).I dont just want a COA. I am looking at this from an investment standpoint (is that so wrong?) andI dont want to purchase an expensive autograph from a celebrity then have people asking or questioning its authenticity THAT LATER DATE when I may need to sell it ..ya know? I do understand after investigating these autographs for the few short months that I have that it is really a very "subjective" thing - which quite honestly could drive "me" bonkers because of that aspect of it - BUT I dont understand why a seller thinks your crazy to want to make sure that the autograph is authenticated by a company that obviously is the " gold standard" in authentication (say psa/dna,jsa).Also you are spending more than $ 5 for these autographs and to me that would be like buying a used car but then not getting any paperwork - gee how easy would it be to sell it then? at a later date?  -not very....well anyway as I was saying, the seller didnt want it tied up @ psa/dna so I lost it on that technicality - because I needed (and asked for) more than just a good ol COA - we all have printers ya know? and how dare you not immediately trust someones ethics that you never met because they say they are "good for it"..methinks not - just my 2 cents on this subject -

I don't blame the seller at all. Sometimes PSA takes a really long time to return your item. And with PSA authentication I would ask for much more money if I were the seller.

well that may be true, but I offered to pay for the authentication from psa/dna (even though I was told they were greatly backed up) - which doesnt help matters I know, and I understand what you are saying but the bottom line for me (and its just plain common sense) isthat I feel I should have to have some kind of  documentation to carry with a celebrity autograph besides someones COA,but then again I guess you are correct in saying that if the price is pretty low (for a well known celebrity) that it just might be a chance you might have to take to aquire it. =]

I wanted to get a psa qucik opinion BUT because it wasnt being sold on a "auction"  they said they wouldnt do it - when I called

will the seller accept a return if it fails PSA? I am fairly certain it will pass.  How about Roger Epperson? Because he specializes in Rock and Roll autographs, his opinion would most likely carry more weight.

Yeah, their quick opinion is only for ebay and auction houses.

I don't understand why PSA doesn't do what Roger Epperson does. You can email Roger an image and he gives you an opinion for $15 bucks. He even does it for free sometimes on this website.
