Although, I honestly believe the vast majority of people buying these "bargains" are not innocent victims. Some are but, for the most part, the buyers concerns are not authenticity. It's a cheap trophy and the don't care. It looks so cool.........

I can buy that logic

And it explains why so many sellers have 100% positive feedback

Joe W is right about that.

They should save a lot of money and just buy a reprinted copy.

There are plenty of them on EBAY for guys like Babe Ruth for $5.

You can frame that up and none of your guests are going to know that its a copy.   

I'm going to put a certified autographed photo of Jesus in my study with my other autographs and see if anyone notices.  I guarantee someone will ask me how much its worth or how I got it.

This is why there are "regional" forgery rings. The forger, main distributor and sellers are typically within driving distance of each other.

One of the biggest changes EBAY made to prevent buyers from warning each other, is that you can no longer see the username of the person that won an auction so you can't contact them.   

There are probably a lot of good reasons that ebay did this, but it really prevents buys from talking to each other about fake items.  

EBAY knows they offer fake items.   It would be great of someone got a hold of an internal memo taking about fake autographs and how to keep the sellers going.

I posted NEGATIVE feedback for Lock-Em-Up-Bob and other account Samsobo (now changed) and EBAY removed all the feedback.
