Authenticity is Everything
The Pretenders\Chrissie Hynde signed "Hate For Sale", CD from Newbury
I got one of these the other day...
I thought mine looked real, however i guess it is not as I just got this e-mail. Did anybody else get this?
Here is a pic of what i got.
Hello,
Thank you for your recent order for The Pretenders’ Hate For Sale CD with accompanying autographed booklet. We wanted to reach out to you, as it has come to our attention that the autographed booklets that came with this pre-order were machine-signed and not hand-signed by Chrissie Hynde. We apologize if this has caused any confusion or disappointment, as this does not meet the expectations that we have for authentic, hand-signed signatures for our autograph promotions.
As such, we wanted to offer you the opportunity to return this title for a complete refund. If you would like to do so, please reply to this email with your newburycomics.com order number and we will provide you with a prepaid return label to return the order without incurring shipping costs.
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns about this as well, and we will be glad to assist further. Thank you again for being a customer with Newbury Comics.
Best Regards,
Josiah

I have to wonder what say the artist has in all of this exactly. How much is the artist in on the plan to auto pen? I wonder if there is an agreement to do that with all parties from the top to the bottom? I don't think any person owns the rights to their autograph. Can their label just do that without their consent?
At the end of the day however, it all has to do with sales/moving product and getting as high up on the top whatever list..be it 40,100,500..etc. That is all they care about, as we have seen that time and time again with bieber, gaga...etc...

I think it varies dramatically. For something like the Lana Del Rey ghost signer a few years ago, or the Halsey autopenned CDs that UK customers got, considering that they did legitimately sign plenty of product (with Halsey obviously still being a work in progress this year), I'd guess they weren't "in" on it.
In Hynde's case, I'm guessing she had to know unless she pays absolutely no attention whatsoever to her band's business dealings. It doesn't appear she signed anything authentically.

Well done Newbury Comics!
I'm not impressed with Townsend Music Store at all - i have bought hundreds of things off them over the years - is this a one off or are all TownsendStores Signed items fake???
Just printed off my Townsend returns label
I was hoping these were real after the very recent Pretenders and chrissie hynde Fake / autopenned Lps being sold from her UK Webstore - i guess another terrible / fraudulant band/person/company NEVER to be trusted again !

You will never convince me that the artists don;t know that there signature is being forged on there product they know They might deny it but they know, Shame on those who do it, with different signatures and different pens they know it they try to pass it off and she makes it look like shes all about everything and yet she rips off her fans I'm done with the pretenders No wonder why they call themselves that

Did Townsend provide you with the return label? I reached out to them a few days ago and got the standard "We have checked this with the artist management, and have been advised these were definitely hand signed." I replied back with some images and mentioned Newbury's notice as well, but have not heard back since my last email. I initiated a return on their website, but it looks like I need to pay for the return shipping from the US to the UK. On a $20 item, it doesn't seem worth it to me. Very frustrating.

The Thing that really p***** me off is with the current pandemic problems - Chrissie Hynde Would have been sat on her arse - not doing alot for months and can't even be bothered to Sign these for real - Shame on you Chrissie Hynde - The pretenders can just keep pretending - you won't be getting any of my cash ever again!

5816nick - not sure what's going on (connection issue?), but your last post showed up three times, and your previous post to that copied like three or four times.

Newbury is good to their customer about fake "signed" items. They cancelled when i ordered Rascal Flatts as they learned it was auto pen before sent to me. Then another was by Lorreta Lynn but i end up keeping hers despite it being autopen. So i do recommend orders thru Newbury at anytime. Have not got my "signed" Hate for Sale yet order thru some other site but i expect it to be fake as the others.

That is amazing customer service. And it seems to continue the pattern that she is doing with her signed Vinyl's as well. That's unfortunate.
