Awful Babe Ruth Forgery -Check out the Certs!

It does not get much worse than this. One of the most brutal Ruth forgeries imaginable, but to help sell this crap, the seller has attached bogus certs from REAL (Roger Epperson) and Mounted Memories. Unbelievable!!!

He also has a Clemente up for auction, and if you can believe it, it is even worse than the Ruth.

here is the link to this pathetic listing:

Check out this awful Tom Brady forgery by Ebay seller Nee23.

If you look closely, you will notice that his "autographs" are penned by one and the same hand.

and he shows the Brady photo to fool his victims. just like the phony certs he is using for the Ruth. Has Roger EVER authenticated anything but music??

This crook should be banned from ebay for blatantly trying to mislead potential buyers.

I was kidding haha. Would not fall for this type of garbage. I wish there was some sort of screening process on eBay prior to listing autographed items, but that would take a lot of manpower.

Ebay has procedures in place where many of these items are flagged by people that know signatures. They just fail to pull the trigger, unfortunately.

They used to do just what you suggest through the EMR program. Now it appears they are removing little or nothing. eBay is about as bad as its ever been... Flooded with fake autographs and the bad sellers are just thumbing their noses.

I am sure at Autograph News Live their is already a story in place trying to associate Roger with this Babe Ruth ball. lol. Would it really surprise anyone. This is just laughable and i hope Roger goes after them.
