Dear fellow collectors!

Just spotted on EBay another scam, seller named SPOOKONE selling Sex Pistols full line up, signed in sharpie !!! This is a secon item, firs one he sold and it was Sex Pistols as well, full line up in sharpie for 25 quids !!!

When I asked about provinance he was so dumb to tell me that it has been obtained in the year 2006 what makes Sid Vicious supposedly resurected???

Can we do anything about this type of scammers???

Unfortunately, all you can do is report on here and other websites what you find to be questionable, and get the word out, because all that happens is SPOOKONE then becomes SPOOKONE2, then spooke65, and so on and so forth. It just never ends.

This seller is trying to pass off a souvenir baseball with stamped on signatures as an authentic 1995 Atlanta Braves team signed baseball with a starting bid of $1,000.00. I reported them along with somebody else for another item but the seller and this baseball are still on Ebay.

Has anybody ever dealt with Icon Sports Marketing on Ebay ?

Comment by David Wright on July 15, 2013 at 12:53pm

Hi Rhonda, I've never dealt with them but I have taken a look at the 5 golf offerings they have (1 signed ball and 4 signed pin flags) and all look, without a doubt, 100% legitimate to me. Best wishes, David.

There seems to be a lot of sports interest here, but this is a movie/tv alert. I see an extremely questionable George Reeves (1950s TV Superman) alleged signature on ebay now.  Item # 281139776607. 2nd one I have seen this month. As always, do your homework before you plunk down a sizeable sum of money.

Has anybody ever heard of American Authentix ? There's a political item for sale with their COA. Thanks !

Comment by Mike Stone on August 13, 2013 at 11:12am

Hi, I received 3 boxing gloves with signatures from a family member. I ws told that there were COA's, but they can not be found. I recognize some of the names. Is there anyone who has an opinion of the signatures, the possible value and where and how much it might cost to get a COA. Thanks in advance for your help.  Mike
