James Dean autograph?

Came across this James Dean autograph at a great price and fully authenticated by a company called rareandsigned.com. Should I act fast! Is this a steal? Seller said it belonged to his grandfather and is selling it because he needs money. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I would run away from anything authenticated by rare and signed, including this.

Aren't Rare and Signed COAs supposed to be banned from Ebay anyway?

The certificate looks pretty legit and professional, even has watermarking and an exact high quality photo of the item.

Anyone can do that, regardless of their qualifications or intent.

Here's a list of COAs banned from Ebay. Click on "Certificates of Authenticity and Letters of Authenticity." You'll see Rare and Signed listed as "not allowed."
