Babe Ruth auto

Hello. Bought this custom babe ruth cut auto years ago and it's authenticated by ACE. Can anyone give me some info on this? I know a reputable dealer that says justin priddy is legit. Thank you.

I don't think any reputable dealers think Jason Priddy is legit.

You might want to note that ACE is on a relatively short list of banned COAs. Considering how much crap Bay lets fly, it takes a special kind of scam artists to actually get banned.

Any dealer that tells a customer that Justin Priddy is legit is not a reputable dealer. That guy might accidentally authenticate an authentic signature on occasion but only cause he was sent an authentic signature by someone who doesn't know better

Who in their right mind that owns a Babe Ruth signature would send it to Ace? The signature loses value if he touches it. Funniest part of that COA is that Justin Priddy says the item was signed in the presence of an Ace representative. What autograph signing of Babe Ruth did they witness?

The autograph is not authentic in my opinion.

I am not aware of any reputable auction house or dealer that considers Priddy a credible authenticator.

Sorry you're getting bad news about ACE, but they're on eBay's Not Allowed COA list for a good reason.

Aside from the extreme stupidity of saying that Babe Ruth signed it in their presence, that statement is pretty ridiculous in any circumstance. It was signed in your presence, and then it was examine by your staff? Huh?
