"I guess you can choose to believe that. Personally, I'd seek out Beckett-witnessed signatures that were obtained in the last 2 years and see how they compare. I haven't seen much of a change in how he signs his full signature in the last…"

The thing with Ronaldo is he also signs an "abbreviated" version of his signature. That's the sort of signature fans will get when he's…"
"The signature on the ticket looks pretty damn accurate, but the one on the jersey looks way off imo. There are some really good frauds on Ebay who do a much better job (so much so that most people would think it's real). The only red flags are…"

"I was tempted to buy one of these, so I checked the museum website out. Turns out the original price was only 70 Euro (bad sign already), but they were sold out.
Conmen or maybe people who don't know better are selling it for at least triple…"

"Yeah, I recognized him from Everybody Loves Raymond. His friend didn't get his autograph in person, but a bunch of players' from Borussia Dortmund, including Haaland's allegedly. "

"Happy New Year's. Turns out this guy is a real estate agent (he linked me the website he can be found on) who does this as a hobby. So he may not be a scammer himself, but he probably got taken. The PSA quick opinion came back "likely not…"
"Well, Ebay definitely allows many worse characters to sell, that's for sure.
I will say the fact that this guy thinks this is Robert Redford isn't too promising."
"Pretty bad sign. He really should be taken off Ebay. "
"Maybe no one knows who this guy is? I certainly don't."
