Barrett Jackson Auto Show HUGE AMOUNT of FORGERIES!!!!! BEWARE!!!!

I was at the Barrett Jackson today and there were two large walk through displays where they put up framed items on portable wire walls. Every item that I saw was FAKE! Of course, everything had the overdone matting and framing. Most had Global Authentication.

Items such as signed guitars, drum heads, large photo's, jerseys, record albums, huge posters cast signed by all members of Star Wars, etc. Imagine every high end signature all in one place! Jimi Hendrix signed album including his band, McCartney, full Beatles signed items, Jordan, Brando, Koufax, Harrison Ford, Pacino. The list goes on and on. I confronted one guy who was acting as if he was in charge and he walked away from me without saying anything. I made sure to say it loud enough for others to hear me.

If you go to the Barrett Jackson, please don't be fooled into buying anything. Look and laugh, but don't buy!

Or this one...

Blade Runner Harrison Ford & Sean Young Signed Movie Dis

Which you apparently sold.

I'd like to check the availability of the Fake Scarlett Johansson on the Avengers piece as well. ....your site says to inquire.

it matches the Fake one on the Sold Captain America with Shield display.

That's just to page 2 of your website Movie section....is there a reason I should continue?

I really love your forger's ability to expect no one to catch the 2001 Emma Watson style autographs on all the reproductions of 2011 Harry Potter posters and photos.

Bravo!

Beautiful frame jobs tho.....you should stick to that and avoid modern celeb autographs.

Integrity is the key word in that statement.

The minute I accepted "a lot of money" from you on any Star Wars, Marvel or Avengers item.......my integrity would be flushed.

My reputation in this hobby is far more important to me, far more valuable over making a quick buck.

If you are going to offer large quantities of these items for sale with your "successful" company name attached to them.....find some real pieces.

Scarlett's supposed autographs on each of your items ....sold, available or "please ask about availability" would have had to been signed in the early half of the 2000's, before 2005.

She didn't appear in a Marvel film until 2010.

Your attempted Emma Watson signatures on your pile of Potter material is also off by a decade.

This isn't opinions, this is reality. Something tells me that you won't be removing them from your stock. But now you know.

Whatever you claim to be trying to do, a company's reputation follows said company forever.....do you really think I would want, or could afford to have my name connected to this type of business?

your Dimaggio, Williams and Mantle items are particularly concerning as they are among the most commonly forged signatures in sports, and your photos on those, as opposed to others, are not identifiable.

would you be willing to post some examples of those specific baseballs here for opinion, or PM me and we can discuss off line?

If you are serious about reforming your brand start making moves in the right direction. Stop lying to us here about the sources of your material or threatening to sue people because you don't like what they are posting. The people that are here reading this are the people you want to impress and gain as customers. They are the smart collectors who will back you up and buy your high end material. When buyers come here asking for opinions on Millionaire Gallery what do you want the narrative to be? That all starts with you taking the first step in the right direction and showing people you mean it.

Well said !

I'm curious why you (Millionaire Gallery) don't have clear and close-up photos of your sports autographs of Mantle, DiMaggio, etc?

Chris, I think we both know the answer to that.

But how does that relate to chris' question about pix not being sharp?

I would recommend taking a focused picture of your already completed examples used to entice future customers.

Not answering the question, carefully skirting around the issue and doing the slight of hand dance where you try to direct the attention in a different direction. Same old story, never changes.

M.g is just being avassive.
Id believe Pete any day over you trying to flog your crap.
Lets see your items with, the coas. Your jimi hendrix photo is a little out of view.
