"Game used sports memorabilia is my forte. I’ve handled multiple pieces of Kobe gear and know his signature well. IN MY OPINION this signature is no good."

"Thank you for the advice! I had never heard of Beckett Authentication before. I will submit the pictures to their websites and see what they say and also ask PSA about sticker. Thank you. "

"I would see if you can get a 2nd opinion by Beckett Quick Opinion. I believe the signature is real and possibly just really sloppy sticker placement. I realise PSA etc are all away but send an email with the close up photos asking if they typically…"

"These up close photos are very helpful. The signature is authentic IMO. but I still do not like the sticker. The 2nd of the new photos is the best photo of the sticker but the slant and placement looks sloppy for most I've seen. Saying all of…"

"The jersey appears to be a fan one you could purchase from most sports stores or the Lakers shop for $40-$50. If you have proof of the fake PAAS certs I would email the seller with your concerns on the PAAS and that you have concerns on this as well…"
