Beware Of Ebay Seller "bfromthemet" Selling Bad Blues Forgeries

Hello everyone,

Well i regret to inform you that ebay seller "bfromthemet" is at it again. I dont know if anyone remembers, as its been a few weeks back, but i posted a thread about an especially heinous Muddy Waters forgery being sold on ebay. At the time i didnt name the ebay seller. Honestly the Waters forgery was so bad that i didnt think anyone would bid, but looking back on it, it sold for over 100 dollars. A true shame. AND THIS SELLER WAS WARNED!!!! He was contacted via ebay and told that his Muddy item was a bad forgery, but no response was ever given and he left it up.

Here is that nasty Muddy Waters forgery in question that was sold. I hope the buyer finds this and gets his money back:

I could go for days on how wrong this autograph is, i mean not even close. And this is how the seller describes it:

"MY BROTHER OWNED THIS FOR 25 YEARS, ANOTHER ONE OF THE PRIZES IN HIS BLUES COLLECTION THAT I WILL BE SELLING OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. "


Well thats okay bfromthemet, i will be watching for those next items, as im sure they are just as bad. My personal opinion is that these items never came from a collection, but instead were purchased form a site such as AutographsAmerica. They look like the same crap.

So im looking around on ebay, and low and behold here is another gem from his "brothers" collection. Either his brother got taken alot, and had no idea how to find authentic sigs, or the seller is just telling a story. Check out this horrific Albert King that has bids. What are people thinking? This is crazy, it looks nothing like Albert King. Im sure its done by the same guy who signed the Waters autograph.

Here is the link:

I hope this is the last forgery ebay seller bfromthemet will sell, but apparently his "brother" has more to unload that will need watched for.

This is just a horrible forgery. It takes zero searching to find out that this is as bad as they come for Albert King forgeries.

Speaking of bad Albert King signatures, here is another. I dont see any possibility this is real. If it is, then its a style that i have never seen before anywhere. King did not write this neat ever to my knowledge. I typically wouldnt even be trying to rationalize it, but the seller on ebay seems to be a legit seller. But this is not a real Albert King in my opinion. He posts a picture of a concert brochure, but that means nothing as far as the autograph. If anyone has ever seen an authentic King that looks anything like this please let me know. As this just screams bad to me.

LOL. Caveat emptor. Unbelievably poor tries.
