These guys are well known and a bit notorious. They do NOT have a reputation for selling fakes, however. But I still wouldn't buy from them.

"very Autographed Jersey Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Professional Sports Authenticators (PSA), James Spence Authentication (JSA), or Beckett Authentication Services."

Real autograph or not, they do have a reputation for taking a month or two to ship an item. I have seen a ton of complains on the sports card boards on Facebook. I have never heard anybody accuse them of selling anything that wasn't PSA, JSA or Beckett authenticated.

From what I have seen it looks like they buy up surplus inventory. There are a lot of promoters out there who do public signings and end up with piles autographed balls, jerseys and bats that have little value. I think these guys buy them in bulk, toss in an autograph or two that actually has value and then sell them as "mystery" boxes. The autographs I have seen people post from their "mystery" boxes have been almost entirely retired semi stars or busted prospects. So if you do buy something from them, it will likely be authentic. But I wouldn't want to spend $50 so I can wait 2 months to get an autographed Marty Cordova jersey.

It's an OK deal. Magic does several private signing each year. There is one coming up and they advertised $79 to have a jersey signed (you provide the jersey). He is one of the more reasonable athletes as far as signing fees

For $60 your likely buying a very cheap jersey that was signed for the promoter. Typically the athletes receives most (sometimes all) of the money fans pay for the signing. The promoter will negotiate a specific number of autographs for themselves as part of the deal. X number of balls, X number of jerseys Ect. They then have to unload those autographs without p****** off the people who just paid for the signing. So they typically will sell some bulk and/or wait a while and have a "sale" where they will sell their inventory below the cost people paid at the singing. Which is why I never do private signings. I'll pay too much sometimes so my son can meet an athlete at a public signing. But many times I have contacted the promoter and purchased something from a signing at half the cost six months later.

So that $60 Magic auto (likely legit) is almost certainly on a Chinese jersey you can buy in bulk for $15. Its cool. But will likely never be worth much.
