This one always cracks me up, too. Bold of the forger to attempt to sell a fake that looks to have been signed...in crayon lol. Not even remotely close, I'm afraid. I'm amazed that it has 7 bids. How? 

Yes, the price is silly. No full genuine set will go for that low. If you have the time, take a look at the Queen Value list I've put together to get a better idea of what you can expect to pay for a genuine Freddie or Queen item. If you're looking for Queen items I'm always happy to help when I can. Just shoot me a message. All the best, and welcome.

Hard to tell for an amateur what's genuine.

Your post is very informative. I guess I'll have to get to recognise their hand writing ;)

No problem. I've been studying only Queen for 40 years now, and the wife has convinced me to stop adding to the collection, so I spend my time helping others find genuine pieces. It's the next best thing to collecting again myself lol.

Brilliant!! :) 
Yeah I'm a fan, but only the last year Ive been slowly getting original UK vinyls. Was on a break in London a few weeks past and a guy at a stand was selling a signed Works. I obviously didn't take it as how can I know if it is authentic - right? So started looking out of curiosity, total minefield. Plus the prices, well, I better save up huh? Lol..

Long gone are the days you could get a fully signed piece for a low price. Looking at the prices now, I laugh thinking about the 80s. Can you believe there was time we were able to pick up a full set for less than $100? Anyone got a time machine? Lol

It's like that with everything these days, the retro gaming market for example. Even the original vinyl records go for quite a bit. Finding an Innuendo UK LP is tough, at least for a reasonable price and complete.

A signed LP by the band would be my long-term goal. Preferably one of my favourites: Miracle, Game, Works, :) :)

I blame it on the movie and Baby Driver. :)

Indeed! I'd be happy to help you hunt one down. They do pop up from time to time. The Miracle is the only one of the albums you listed that had a number of them signed by the band for promo, but there are signed copies of the game and the works that show up in circulation. I'm not entirely sure how many Miracle promo albums were signed in total but most thay grabbed them held on to them. I'd say you see one genuine one a year on average. I'll shoot you a message if I see any of those albums become available. All the best

I think I saw a photo of them signing the album.. 
This is on the bay (but suspicious):

Another fake, unfortunately. Ebay is drowning in them at the moment
