Steve Sipe Global/GAI: Are these Mariano Rivera fakes?
I thought Steve Sipe was supposed to clean up Global Authentics (formerly GAI)?
These highly suspect signatures are flooding eBay and they all look like they came from the same hand and I'm betting it wasn't Mariano Rivera's. They seemingly almost always have a Global COA.
Who is submitting these? Where are they coming from? Why are they always listed at a fraction of Steiner, JSA or PSA prices? Doesn't that lead one to believe the sellers know they are suspect items?
This junk is what i found just browsing this morning. Repeat this every day and week and there are hundreds -- maybe thousands -- of this style Rivera with Global COAs.
What is going on here?

How could anyone be examining them? They must just be issuing COAs.

Zipper did you ever hear back from Steve Sipe on this?

No. I've noticed this style signature now often gets removed when they appear on ebay. So not nearly as many as there used to be. Probably all over Craigslist now.

BTW, I have seen the disgraced Justin Priddy / ACE has been certing this style.

He's trying so hard to get better it's hilarious. The straight line "ivera" has come a long way!

LOL. I have no fear this loser will ever be a master forger.
