Hi Mr. Zipper, does eBay block the sale of items like this?

They must know that rotten item will hit the fan when someone like Armstrong passes.

i have been watching very carefully for over a day and i haven't seen any autopens or fakes get removed yet. perhaps the people who remove auctions will look through completed listings and report them?

The forgeries must be "Reported" to be removed.   It would be impossible to install a blocking system (filter).

It does not matter, unless you are part of the inner circle you can report them all day long and nothing will be done.

Frankly, I'm stunned that several of these listed in the 1st few pages are still not removed.  Perhaps even the "inner circle" isn't working either...

I think it's because of the weekend and because the new management may not be aware of the rush of forgeries that come on the market within moments of a famous death.

that's a good excuse as any I suppose.  However, listing non-authentic items doesn't operate between m-f 9/5 even if it is PST, Only 1 (one) person stepped down.  There was an organization above and still a "team" in place last I knew.

& by now, I'd have to believe that group is not completely incompetent in realizing that the death of celebrity doesn't bring out the worst of items. Especially with the listing prices some of these items are commanding.

It's a possible explanation, not an excuse. The executive in charge of sports and entertainment is familiar with coins, not autographs. They're a whole different animal.

Prime example of three auto-pen done signatures.  Sellers is asking $10K or Best Offer.  I hope no one gets stuck with this.

not sure but majormags might be having an issue since it indicates; This seller currently has no items for sale. and the above alleged autopen results found for

261088325334 can not be FOUND!

there are some good deals too. some idiot did a $2299 buy it now on an authentic armstrong worth $4000 and someone used the buy it now 9 minutes later. i wasnt home though but still got other good deals. too bad there are so many forges and autopens though :/ http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l25...
