<p>It's how dismissive collector's are of that company's practices are that I purely can't understand. Their sports division (Gridiron Authentics) was fully outed for forgery and is now gone, and yet CA fans pretend like that never happened.</p>

<p>Thanks, Etienne. Quite honestly, the money is not the issue. I wrote this blog to simply caution and educate other members. Rich has also proven with his deductive reasoning that the situation is something that many autograph collectors are well aware of by now. Fool us once, shame on them; fool us twice, shame on us. I suppose that in my case, it would be three times that I would be shamed by, but the two deposits were so close together that I had no way of knowing any better at the…</p>

<p>Mike, I don't think it was foolish on your part. You simply trusted a source that, as you say, you had had positive prior experiences with.

As Joe says above, it's criminal since they basically just took your money without delivering what you contracted with them for.</p>
