It is no surprise that hundreds of GA (Global Authentics, Steve Sipe) "certified" Puig autographs magically appeared on eBay after he became popular.
Here is an example of a horrible attempt, this forgery listed by eBay seller topprospect2011
Mr. Sipe, if you dare to comment, were these even LOOKED AT?! It is a MIRACLE that GA is not on eBay's "banned COA's" list. Mr. Sipe who is authenticating these, the blind?

Look at GA (Global Authentic, Steve Sipe) authenticated Puig "autograph" ball compared to 2 authentic ones. It is a JOKE. The top is the GA "signed" ball, underneath are 2 authentic balls.
its the same thing with the GA authenticated Tom Brady's. there are lots of them and virtually all of them are forgeries. I just don't get it, really. someone at Ebay needs to wake up.

You don't even have to be a Puig expert to know these are forgeries, you can tell by pen pressure/hesitation alone. There is no way anyone with ANY knowledge of autographs is looking at this obvious junk. GA is a joke.
