Piedmont Auction - Selling A Lot of Forgeries FAKE scoreboard GFA AAU

While there are several authentic pieces mixed in, the majority of items in this auction are terrible forgeries authenticated by the likes of AAU & GFA. Additionally there are lot of FAKE Scoreboard COA's. As we all know Scoreboard was a legitimate company, but now forgers take photocopies of authentic COA's and put them with FORGERIES....

Here is just one example. A 500-hr club ball that already has a bid for $150.

Typical scammer of forgeries.

This is another scammer who is using a Scoreboard COA to sell forgeries. Can you spell "FRAUD."

Kind of disappointed this is the auction house that the Jackie piece I once owned has been consigned to.

I have been working with Proxibid and they are pretty good about listening. If more people call and let them know it would be very helpful. They are not really an autograph auction site but more and more people have been putting items up that can not sell elsewhere. Proxibid Phone:877 505 7770

Piedmont is back, with another auction closing in September...it appears many of items in this auction are legit, but they still want to sell about 25-30 forged items with GFA, fake scoreboard COAs...
