FYI, this failed both Beckett and PSA/DNA Quick Opinion.

I don't know what to think on it.  Here is the seller; it does look kind of suspect that he has all of these autos without COAs:

I won the Paul, Jimmy, and Lennon, but when I sent for Quick Opinions all came back inauthentic.

I'm not a huge fan of PSA and Beckett with Music.  Have you tried Roger?

Do you agree when you look at his account it looks suspicious -- so many premium items with no COAs?  It does look kind of suspect in totality?

Well, what about the names, prices realized and the number of bidders? One could read into that as well? I look at that stuff - in context.

Keep in mind, there are numerous authentic items in the marketplace without a TPA’s LOA.

Nothing I sell comes with a COA, nor do I buy such things as they are usually maxed in price and/or destroyed by a freeloading self-advertising obnoxious sticker. I'd rather hunt in the wild than what is fast becoming a zoo!

At least this seller doesn’t have a really large inventory of autographs with multiples of very iconic figures.  That’s not to say he/she isn’t corrupt, but the sellers that really make me uncomfortable are the ones with say...300 or so autographs with multiples of Michael Jackson, David Bowie, John Lennon, and so forth

I don’t know about the reliability of Beckett’s QO service, but PSA’s I have found not to be so great.  I personally have received “Likely Not Genuine” from PSA QO that turned out to be quite genuine as I had thought.  And I’ve spoken with others who have had that same experience with PSA QO.  No one knows who is doing these QO for $10, and they tend to error on the side of caution.

So that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s not authentic.

I have seen a number of PSA and JSA forged "Bowies" - including obvious forgeries and stupid things where the sig is dated prior to the photo being printed/distributed.
