Comment by kissdestroyer1966 on November 15, 2012 at 2:24pm: Do NOT EVERY buy anything from AUTOGRAPHS NETWORK.COM (used to be Autographs America run by Brian Burke). He and his company are 100% FAKE!!!!!!! He has artists sign guitars, drum heads, albums, posters, etc. He lists at relatively high prices and always runs 90% to 95% off which brings the pricing down to a reasonable amount. I promise you his stuff is as bad as it gets. Please do not purchase from him or his Internet Store!!!!

Comment by Jet Jackson on March 28, 2013 at 12:08pm: American Memorabilia is at it again on Ebay showcasing a new extremely questionable Stevie Ray Vaughan (one of my favorites) signature. Fans who may wish to see it on ebay, here is the # : # 151018416467

They are asking 1300 for this alleged signature. I personally would not give 13 cents for this one.

Comment by VolFins on April 12, 2013 at 3:40pm: Is there a service that renders quick opinions on non auction items ? I LOVE PSA's QO and wear them out, but there are a few lesser known autos for sale on a couple of sites that I would like to have checked out. Thanks ! Here are the sites with the item pics and I would appreciate your input. My gut says they're crap, especially from HOF just because I've heard on here that they're shady, but just on the off chance one of them may be real......
