Hi guys, hope all is well! Reading your discussion about Mantle autographs I thought I might ask you for your thoughts.<br />
<br />
My wife (very generously) decided to buy me this lovely looking bat for our anniversary from SM. It hasn't arrived you but looking at it and reading your various experiences, I'm naturally suspicious. They are also listed on eBay (at a lower price of course) but below is the link on SM. Anyone have any idea as to whether it might be real? Any help would be greatly…

<p>Huge thanks for the sportsmemorabilia.com info. Found an item on there and then went to ebay (after reading this) and found the exact item (same COA#) for about half price.</p>
<p>Also, somewhat new to the hobby, am wondering everyone's thoughts on how trustworthy Beckett Authentication is. Been considering buying a few hockey items with their COA (and hologram) but wasn’t sure about how credible/reliable their authentications are. any thoughts are greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>You know, you're right. I've had this picture for more than 50 years and never looked at it close enough to see just how far off it really is from ones that have been authenticated. It's not even close. At least I didn't pay for it. WHen I was a kid we used to send pictures to players asking for them to sign them. Many sent them back signed. This was one of them. I have dozens. I'll have to examine all closely now to see if they're this bad. Damn. </p>
<p>Thanks.</p>

Christopher Williams, that is exactly what those leeches do. I occasionally go to their website just for laughs to see how much they've marked up a legitimate seller's price. Sportsmemorabilia.com listed a Star War item I was looking at on eBay. On eBay, the real owner listed it for $3400, but those parasites at SM listed it on their site for about $6000...hoping some sucker would bite. I feel bad for the OP who built a collection through that shady website. One could in fact build an authentic…

I feel bad for the OP who built a collection through that shady website. One could in fact build an authentic collection buying from them...at perhaps nearly double the cost! Buying from them is just like giving them charity, but if one wants to give away money, why not try donating to cancer research instead!
