Ebay Seller Xjokerx Sells Forged Signed 500 Homerun Club Baseball For $850 COA Shop At Home

Before I continue, below are links showing hundreds of examples of forged Mickey Mantle baseballs, photos, etc. found on Ebay (the most dangerous place to buy autographs if you're a casual collector or impulse buyer).

Check out this forged "500 Homerun Club" sold by Ebay seller Xjokerx for $850.00 (the Buy It Now was $1,249.99 and the accepted Best Offer was $850.00).

What a waste of $850.00!!!

This is a prime example of why selling forgeries on Ebay is actually easier than selling authentic autographs; with Ebay so heavily-populated with delusional autograph collectors and impulse buyers, it's no surprise that Ebay makes a mint from the sales of forgeries.

They are common and typical "500 Homerun Club" forgeries that we've observed for two decades.

This garbage continues to infect our hobby.

Here's another piece-of-crap "500 Home Run Club" set of forgeries with a worthless COA from Shop At Home.

I remember watching the Shop at Home crap memorabilia shows back in the early 90’s. Those two clowns were so busy peddling their crap and sadly much of it is still around.

Imagine wasting $850.00 on that garbage.

Steve, hopefully the buyer will submit it to Beckett or JSA.

that lousy mantle signature is ingrained in my head ... a shameful waste of money even if all the other sigs are good....it frosts my butt to see someone get taken again with such garbage....
