I obtained three signed Hemingway books from the same collection and am trying to determine if they are legitimate. Any opinions or direction on who I should send them to would be appreciated.

Eddy,
You got it. I told them I had the preliminary review by Beckett stating the item is "Unlikely to pass full authentication". The credit card rep didn't think that wording was strong enough to merit the return of the payment. I said I world have the book examined for authentication and he asked can the authenticating agency provide a letter stating their qualifications? Your link fits the bill perfectly. Thanks,

You're very welcome, CJ. It certainly says very clearly that Beckett is amongst the recognized professionals on the eBay platform. That seems to be the first hurdle cleared.
I'm wondering if the cc company will require the full submission or not or if the online signature review will suffice? It almost seemed like the cc company rep was more concerned about Beckett's qualifications overall. Kind of wondering if they even know the difference between the preliminary signature review and full submission?
