Thanks Steve.  We refuse to believe that we have many more fake items in our possession.  But I'll definitely look twice before I state that the autographs are authenticate...even with COA's.  It seems that even the most popular COA companies can't be trusted 100%!

Thank you CM! Yes, we probably have what your readers are looking for in autographed sports memoriabilia.   Just ask!  I'll check with my husband if he has the item that your reader is looking for.

Thanks guys. Good Karma is definitely welcome. We've had a rough go of it the past two years. From non-paying get jobs, contract defaults, fathers death, dog died of cancerous tumour 10 months after a $6K surgery to remove it, our cat getting ran oved, and our most recent hardship - our furniture was stolen by movers in August. Thank goodness they didn't want the 175 boxes of possessions. Half of which were my husband's collectibles!

So, anyone interested in purchasing a couple of fake autographed movie posters? We have a Goodfellas poster too...lol.

Thank you Steve.  We have 400+ items to sell.  I'll definitely secure opinions for any other questionable items.

Sincerely, Kim

Hello Kim,
Does your husband have a list of his cinema items?

Kim,

I hope you have autographs that our members would love to own...and you probably do!

But I told members to read your profile because you said you don't want to sell anyone forgeries, and that is so important to us.

Regarding your autographs:

If someone says an autograph you have is not genuine, or possibly not, and offers you something for it, pass. It probably is genuine, and if not, they're a forgery seller who you can't trust anyway.

If a member makes an offer on an autograph you have, it could be a great offer or it may be low. Check prices, ask members publicly or privately, but I wouldn't recommend revealing who made the offer unless they say it's OK. In any case, it's OK to counter an offer, ask for a higher one, or pass on it.

Don't be in a rush! It takes time to learn the autograph market and how to buy and sell in it. If you need to raise cash quickly, it's harder to get full market value, but if you have popular autographs, it shouldn't be too hard.
